Omega Plastics can now offer micro-moulding following its investment in new capacity at its Team Valley site.
The Demag IntElect2 50/360-65 allows it to offer precision mouldings from less than 1g up to 22g. Suitable applications include small and complex technical components for the medical industry, automotive industry and others.
Omega says it can now produce tiny, complex, and feature-rich components efficiently, cost-effectively, and in volume. The machine is already in full operation.
Omega says the demand for micro-moulding is growing across the UK and globally, and it hopes to facilitate customers within new niche markets by providing a full end-to-end service from prototype, toolmaking to finished product delivery.
Omega Plastics Group provides a range of low to high volume, specialist multi-use plastic injection moulding services, tooling, and transfer tooling.
Other investments in the past year include Bole 140T, 230T & 520T plastic injection moulding machines.
Nathan Ashford, Business Development Manager said: “It’s a great opportunity for us to now provide an even more extensive product provision to our new and existing customer base. There is an increased demand for micro-moulded components within our key industries, and we look forward to expanding our delivery range and product capabilities moving forward.”
