Welson can help to bring your project from concept to completion. Welson can design and prototype a new part, build a custom mold, manufacture, and assemble your plastic part all under one roof.Welson has 10 injection molding presses ranging from 80 tons to 1000 tons. We are a contract manufacturer and can provide a turnkey manufacturing solution whether you are starting from scratch or transferring an existing production mold.

Yes we do. For existing customers, it is part of the service we provide for the new projects they are designing. With new customers, those services would be available on a project cost basis or could be wrapped into the costing of the new mold.

We have the ability to produce a tool aimed at prototypes. They are more geared at lower volumes and allow for part refinement.

Yes, Welson does receive and run molds that were done at other suppliers.

We operate 10 injection machine ranging from 30 tons of clamping force to 1500 tons. Shot sizes range from 0.1 ounce to 155 ounce. Typical injection molding clamping force ranges from 1-1/2 to 5 tons per square inch (depending on part thickness and resin selection) so a 1000-ton press can produce parts with a surface area of approximately up to 1000 square inches.

Welson Corporation was a pioneer in over-molding of fabrics, metal, plastic components and filter media. We use robotics on all our injection presses to insure that metal inserts or other components are precisely nested in the mold before molten plastic is injected.

Normally our mold tolerance is 0.05 mm, Product tolerance is 0.005mm.

Welson builds tools to accommodate the expected number of parts over the life of the project. Domestically produced tools can be built to a one million shot life if warranted. Some Welson-built molds have produced several million shots with minor rebuilds over the life of the tool.

Normally, 2D&3D data are required for quotation; but if you do not have 2D or 3D date yet, you can send us pictures of your product with specific sizes.

All molds have moving pins which can eject the parts out. Maintenance will include periodic greasing of these pins, as well as all other moving components, and cleaning of the cavity and core surfaces.

Assessing where your part is at in the design stage. A designed part will lead us to a quotation for the mold and the part’s manufacturing. We can assist with enhancing the design for mold efficiency as well as manufacturing efficiency.

Yes. API can work with resin suppliers to pre color compounds or can use liquid or powder colorant for that perfect color match. Coloring processes usually project specific.
