Never before has it been so critical to minimize your total cost while optimizing the performance of your parts. Sajar Plastics can assist you in achieving substantial overall cost reductions by incorporating the many benefits of gas assist injection molding into your project:
Tooling Cost Savings
20-30% over conventional injection tooling, Steel or Aluminum can be used depending on requirements. Additionally, the gas assist process reduces in-mold pressures and therefore less wear and tear on the tool.
The Following Benefits Result in Lower Part Cost
Reduced Material Usage: The gas assist process significantly reduces the amount of material required to mold your part while maintaining structural integrity and dimensional stability.
Shorter Cycle Time: Using gas to core-out thick sections results in less production time required in the press to mold your part.
Smaller Press: Reduced hourly machine rates: gas assist requires only 1.0 - 1.25 tons of clamping force per sq. in. compared to 3.0 - 5.0 tons of clamping force in conventional injection molding.
Typical Cost Reductions Using Gas Assist for Large Parts: Up to 30% savings compared to Structural Foam and Structural Web.
Savings on Freight and Material handling: Larger parts that weigh considerably less result in reduced freight expense and improved material handling efficiencies.
