Materials Knowledge
When choosing a partner for overmolding & insert molding, you’ll want to consider their material knowledge. With so many different materials being used, Rosti’s deep knowledge of each of their characteristics is what sets us apart.
What is Overmolding?
Overmolding is a valued technology for producing products that stand the test of time. Rosti helps you manufacture items that feel better and last longer.
With small modifications, you can make big changes. Some examples of how are below:
- Make an item, such as a car key or toothbrush, easier to grip or to give it a more pleasant feel. This can be purely for aesthetic reasons or to improve your products’ sustainability by incorporating post-consumer recycled (PCR) resins.
- Transform a delicate item into something durable and more solid.
- Creates a barrier against dust and water.
- Forms a seal using a flexible elastomer.
All of these changes require a deep understanding of the materials you’re working with to ensure you achieve the best end result for the customer.
What is Insert Molding?
For over a decade, Rosti has delivered insert molding components to customers. Over the years, we’ve been able to enhance the process to produce millions of parts through a fully automated process. We’ve achieved this by utilizing our extensive technical capabilities and have even received patents for some of our facilities operating in a “lights-out” manner.
Our ability to leverage robotic systems and automation, led by a team of highly skilled engineers and technicians, allows us to deliver highly specific results for our customers. It’s just one of many reasons why Rosti is a world-class, low-cost producer of high-volume plastic injection molded parts.
Solving Complex Manufacturing Challenges
At Rosti, we are no strangers to complex manufacturing challenges. One such challenge involved manufacturing and molding three different components to produce a single desired part, including a permeable mesh.
We were able to leverage back-to-back machine systems, robotics, and our years of plastic injection molding technical capabilities. With the help of high-speed automation, we delivered an end product that met all specifications and exceeded expectations.
This level of technical expertise and experience enabled us to solve this challenge with precision and care, allowing us to continue as a global market leader, meeting customer demands in a cost-effective way.
