It is a 500-ton injection molding press and as the name alludes to, its barrel can hold a little over 2 ½ pounds of resin . This injection press took the place of the used 440-ton press that […]

National Composites Week – Agriculture Fertilizer Application System

A longtime agricultural products customer here at PlastiCert approached us about a new delivery system they were designing for liquid fertilizers.

National Composites Week – Crossbow Stock

Four years ago, the lead design engineer for a start-up archery/crossbow manufacturer contacted PlastiCert after having researched the injection molding marketplace. Initial meetings confirmed that we were a good fit for helping them to finalize their design and material selection, and the rest is history. PlastiCert provided input on manufacturability and material selection. The stock […]
