Plastic Components, Inc. Awarded a United States Patent for Bunsen Drive Facility.

We at Plastic Components, Inc. are proud to announce that we have received US Patent No. 8,827,674 B1. This patent is in recognition of our state of the art, “lights out” manufacturing process at Bunsen Drive. The manufacturing design allows for a central material handling system to transport the raw material to the injection molding machines and for automatic conveyors to move product from the machines to the warehouse without the need for any human operators. The building represents one of only a few “lights-out” manufacturing facilities in the world with the capability of running 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, while producing 400,000,000 defect-free parts since its opening in 2011.
