Making Every Day "Earth Day"
Matrix Plastic Products is committed to a daily awareness of our impact on the environment and our continual efforts to reduce it.
Global Competition
The United States’ long legacy of making world class products relies on more than just having the latest technology and equipment: we have a duty to pass on our tradition of manufacturing to the next generation.
Training to Stay Competitive
Making sure your tooling employees are thoroughly trained, in both the latest technology and the traditions of old world moldmaking craftsmanship, is the key to staying competitive.
Breadboard Steel Prototypes
The higher, less predictable shrinkage rates and secondary heating operations involved with metal injection molding (MIM) makes part qualification more time consuming than it is for plastic injection molding. However, by developing small quantities of machined “breadboard” parts, Matrix can save our customers time and money with a faster way to sample components that are destined for MIM production.
The True Cost of Cheap Molds
A cheap mold that doesn’t perform can end up costing more in repairs and lost production time than a more expensive, properly constructed tool would have in the first place. Here’s why it’s important to look at the big ROI picture.
