Case
Studies - Low Volume Production - Military Cables
Currently
at Amtech RP Ltd a low volume production service
is available for clients requiring volumes of
25 to 1000 units. Our Master Model makers can
produce multi core tooling cavities in various
materials to reduce costs hence saving on the
high costs of hard tooling or any other tooling
techniques.
Prototype / Low
Volume Production
A master model was provided by
our client and a multi core silicone tool was
manufactured with a cavity of 4. The cables were
then placed into the tool cavities which enables
our vac Cast dept to over mould 90 shore PU rubber
around the cables thus protecting the wiring from
damage in the field. With strict quality guidelines
and procedures in place by our client we successfully
manufactured units which are still in the field
today working as expected. 150 units have currently
been produced and is currently still on going.
Materials
Various materials
are available from PU Vacuum Casts , V 0 rating
flame retardants ( RIM )and UV stable plastics
and elastomers. Silicone castings in various shore
hardness’s are also obtainable from our
low volume production service.
