Presently,
PMI facilities total 50,000 sq. ft. housing 22 injection molding machines
and produce hundreds of millions of Thermoset and Thermoplastic parts per
year. Our staff of 47 dedicated, experienced and innovative employees are
ready to assist with your needs.
For your convenience and to keep pace with our person-to-person approach
to business, PMI markets its services and products through manufacturing
representatives covering every major marketing area in the U.S. In Europe,
Asia, Mexico and the Middle East our products are marketed through authorized
distributors.
Secondary Capabilities
PMI is EDI/DDL and AIAG bar code capable. Secondary operations include
annealing, material testing, pre & post insert molding, machining,
drilling, thread tapping, assembly and lapping.
Material Capability
Although our standard closure line is produced in commodity type
resins, we also have substantial experience producing components in sophisticated
high performance plastics. Some of our commonly processed resins are ABS,
Acetal, Acrylic, Phenolic, Polycarbonate, PTFE, Polyester and PEEK. If
the priorities of your component project include environmental conditions,
thermal endurance, close tolerance or impact stability, corrosion resistance,
conductivity or lubricity, we may be able to help.
Press Capabilities
Our press sizes range from 2 through 400 tons and from .2 to 60 ounce
shot size. It is our belief that by utilizing the optimum size equipment,
our customers are assured of a quality part produced from the most efficient
and cost effective equipment possible.
The latest edition to our operation is a new multi-million dollar lean
molding facility. The entire section contains the latest in Van Dorn closed
loop systems and is primarily manned by only one employee. This high-speed
section is able to produce millions of cost-effective components each
day and has made a significant contribution toward controlling costs and
maintaining fair pricing for our customers.
In addition, this high-speed, quick change-over section has allowed us
to be more reactive to our customers as it relates to JIT requirements
and has significantly reduced the high cost of carrying and maintaining
large and costly inventories.
Quality
PMI products are manufactured utilizing the International quality
guidelines of ISO 9001/2000. We are experienced in PPAP and ISIR submissions.
For complete tractability, all SPC documentation, material certifications,
test results and other pertinent records are maintained for customer reviews
and lot verifications.
On-Site Precision Tool-Making
Our skilled craftsmen are accustomed to producing precise quality
tooling that meets or exceeds the most stringent specifications. Whether
it's a prototype, slide, insert or unscrewing we have the experience
to produce it. We offer the technical and tooling support you'll need
to take your project from a concept idea right through to production.
For cost conscious customers with unlimited ideas and limited resources,
we suggest the following options. We often build insert tool-sets retrofitted
to one of our multi-cavity molds or depending on design, we may be able
to adapt to our family of modular mold systems. In either case, you own
the insert tools while the expense of the mold base and mold maintenance
remains the responsibility of PMI. |
