At Thogus, we specialize in mid- to high-volume injection molding services for a number of critical industries. Our capabilities include traditional injection molding, two-shot injection molding, and gas-assisted injection molding. Whatever your project, we have the capacity, the capabilities, and the resources to deliver manufacturing solutions customized to fit your exact needs. Our decades of experience enable us to optimize your process and produce plastic components quickly and accurately.

Do you have a custom design that would benefit from both rotational and injection moulding techniques? Global can assist you in building it using these two moulding methods to ensure a sturdy, reliable and budget friendly product. Contact us today to find out more.

Our collaboration with Trailers 2000 to make the TuffMate2000 Trailer required accessories that were injection moulded to complete the product within budget. Attempting to manufacture these small parts by using rotational moulding wouldn’t have made sense, as the parts themselves were not hollow; a main requirement for rotomoulding. At Global, we’re dedicated to finding the most cost-effective and efficient way to assist our clients in completing their project.

Reduced lead times in injection molding are a significant advantage that allows manufacturers to accelerate production and bring products to market faster. Again, once the initial setup is complete, injection molding is a relatively fast process. Even tooling fabrication and production setup are faster for injection molding than some other methods; this is especially true for standard molds and established processes.

The quick setup and efficient production capabilities of injection molding allow for faster time-to-market. This is crucial for companies looking to launch new products and gain a competitive edge.

Injection molding is one of the most versatile and utilized manufacturing processes available. When it comes to producing high-quality plastic parts for critical applications, injection molding works well for low- to high-volume production runs. However, high-volume production in particular takes full advantage of all the benefits of injection molding. Let’s explore why injection molding is the go-to solution for those who need high-volume production runs for their plastic components.

Beyond that, once setup is complete, injection molding involves relatively short cycle times, which enables the rapid production of identical parts. This, combined with the automation and the ability to produce multiple parts per cycle results in a high throughput. All of that results in reduced lead times, making injection molding a go-to method for industries that require quick turnaround times and large quantities of parts.

Here at Global Rotomoulding, we’ve undergone our fair share of custom rotational moulding projects. This includes assisting in the design phase, toolmaking, prototyping and manufacturing of a product. As veterans in the art of plastic moulding, we have a keen eye for recognising what method will produce the best results for your design. In fact, on many of our custom projects, we have outsourced injection moulding services in order to make smaller or more intricate parts of specific products.

Complex geometries and design flexibility are significant injection molding advantages. Because of the high levels of precision, injection molding is capable of producing highly complicated parts with intricate details. This not only helps maintain quality and consistency, but also opens the door for the creation of custom products that meet a customer’s specific needs.

On top of that, injection molding is one of the most material efficient means of producing high quality plastic components. Not only does the precision of the method minimize waste, but the waste that is produced, such as sprues, runners, and scrap can often be recycled to reduce costs.

Founded in 1950, Thogus is an established, family-owned custom plastic injection molder and contract manufacturer headquartered in Avon Lake, Ohio.

One of the biggest advantages of injection molding is that it’s a highly efficient and productive process. In recent years, this is partly thanks to the high levels of automation manufacturers have been able to integrate. Today, machines handle most of the operations, from feeding raw materials to ejecting finished parts. This reduces the need for manual intervention, reducing labor costs and optimizing productivity.

Injection molding excels in providing consistency and precision for the production of plastic parts. Because of the high levels of control and automation, it’s a process capable of producing parts that are consistent in size, shape, and quality. This is the case even in large-volume production runs, where maintaining quality and uniformity across thousands or millions of parts is critical.

Injection moulding is best for intricate, small parts such as screws and rods. It’s often used to make children’s toys and produce large run’s of a product at a low cost.

The second major advantage of injection molding for high-volume production is its cost-effectiveness and scalability. In injection molding, as the number of parts produced increases, the fixed costs (such as mold creation and setup) are spread over more units, reducing the cost per part. This ability to efficiently produce large quantities contributes to significant economies of scale, making the process increasingly cost-effective as production scales up.

Injection molding is also ideal for producing parts with high dimensional accuracy and tight tolerances. This is critical when parts must fit together precisely or meet strict performance standards. This accuracy is maintained throughout large-scale production runs, ensuring uniformity and reliability.

Rotational moulding can be used to make anything that’s hollow on the inside. It’s also typically suited to large-scale products such as water tanks and livestock troughs. The fact that there are no joints in these larger products means that their structural integrity is much sturdier without adding more weight to the overall product. They’re less likely to crack or cave under pressure as a result.

Are you looking to create a custom product out of plastic? You’ll be considering injection or rotational moulding as two prominent options for manufacturing. So which one should you choose? We break down the best options for particular types of products and projects.
