DESIGNING A PLASTIC PART

Designing a plastic component requires careful consideration of many factors, including molding, part area, material selection, and mass production. We can offer injection molding, blow molding, or thermoforming, and our engineers can help design a quality part. We assist you in choosing the proper material and can consider factors like heat resistance, durability, and strength. Most importantly, our staff can help ensure the part can be manufactured effectively in mass quantity at a reasonable price.

TOOLING TRYOUT – OVERSEAS OR DOMESTIC

All 5 of our stamping plants and four injection molding plants have extensive in-house tooling capabilities. With our Texas stamping and tool & die facilities, FKI will reduce engineering budgets while improving productivity. We commonly support ECN/ECR requests locally before PPAP and during product life. The strategy of approving part geometry in our overseas facilities before shipment, with final buy-off and approval in Texas, is very beneficial to our North American clients.
