FAQs
What is custom plastic injection molding?
Custom plastic injection molding is a manufacturing process where molten plastic is injected into a custom-designed mold to produce precise, repeatable parts. Bermar Associates provides complete services including mold design, fabrication, production, and repair to support both low and high-volume applications.
What is short run injection molding?
Short run injection molding refers to low-volume production, typically ranging from a few dozen to several thousand parts. It is commonly used for prototyping, product development, bridge tooling, and niche production needs where full-scale tooling is not yet required.
When should I use short run vs. high-volume injection molding?
Short run injection molding is ideal when you need:
- Faster turnaround times
- Lower upfront tooling costs
- Design flexibility for revisions
High-volume molding is better suited for:
- Large production quantities
- Long-term manufacturing programs
- Maximum cost efficiency per part
Bermar Associates supports both and can help determine the best approach for your project.
What materials can be used in injection molding?
We work with a wide range of thermoplastics, including:
- ABS
- Polypropylene (PP)
- Polycarbonate (PC)
- Nylon (PA)
- Acetal (POM)
- Specialty and engineered resins
Material selection depends on your application’s strength, temperature, chemical resistance, and durability requirements.
How much does custom injection molding cost?
The cost of injection molding depends on several factors:
- Tooling complexity and material
- Part size and geometry
- Production volume
- Resin selection
Short run injection molding helps reduce initial costs by using simplified or aluminum tooling, making it a cost-effective option for lower volumes.
What are typical lead times for injection molding projects?
Lead times vary based on project complexity, but generally:
- Short run tooling and production:2–6 weeks
- Production tooling:6–12+ weeks
Bermar’s in-house mold design and fabrication capabilities help reduce lead times and improve responsiveness.
What is the difference between prototype and production molds?
Prototype molds are designed for speed and lower cost, often used for short runs and testing. Production molds are built from hardened materials for long-term, high-volume manufacturing with extended tool life.
Can you help with part design and engineering?
Yes. Bermar Associates provides engineering support and design for manufacturability (DFM) to optimize your part for performance, cost, and efficient production.
What industries use custom plastic injection molding?
Our services support a wide range of industries, including:
- Medical and healthcare
- Industrial manufacturing
- Automotive
- Consumer products
- Electrical and electronics
Do you offer injection mold repair services?
Yes. We provide in-house mold repair and maintenance services to extend tool life, minimize downtime, and ensure consistent part quality throughout production.
What tolerances can you achieve?
Bermar Associates maintains tight tolerances of ±0.001 inches, depending on part design and material selection.
