Prototyping for Plastic Components and Products

Enplas utilizes various manufacturing techniques to produce high-quality prototype parts faster than conventional prototyping molds. For example:

• Microfluidics Prototyping: Prototype molds designed from computer simulation of fluidic performances sometimes fail to replicate the simulated results. To prevent costly adjustments after the prototype mold is built, Enplas can create and test only your device’s critical microfluidic features in as little as two weeks. Confirming real life performance before investing in a prototype mold prevents costly expenses and delays.
• Gear Prototyping: For certain gears such as worm, compound helical, spur, planetary, and ring gears, production-grade prototypes with superior accuracy and quality are available in as little as four weeks. In the time that it takes to create one hardened-steel prototype trial, customers can try multiple iterations of high-grade gear prototypes.
• Full Custom Semiconductor Socket Prototyping: Enplas offers prototype jigs to accommodate testing environments of various applications, from semiconductors, sensors, and MEMS to rechargeable batteries. Product offerings include full to semi-customized burn-in sockets, final test sockets, rechargeable battery testing jigs, display lighting jigs, PCBs, and more.

From medical and life science to optics, Enplas offers prototyping in all plastic products with future mass production in mind.
