Injection moulding is a highly versatile and
efficient manufacturing process that can produce a wide range of plastic parts
with high accuracy and consistency. However, in some cases, additional
secondary operations are required to achieve the desired end product. This can
be due to technical complexity making it impossible to produce features with
injection moulding, or simply because it is more cost-effective to produce
features as a secondary operation.

Here at BPY Plastics, we offer a comprehensive
range of secondary operations for injection moulded parts, including:

1. Assembly: We can assemble multiple parts
into a single unit or sub-assembly. Our skilled technicians use a range of
techniques and equipment to ensure precise alignment and tight tolerances.

2. Post-operation machining: Some components,
particularly lower volume components, are cheaper to manufacture overall by
adding features with secondary operation machining. Some features like
collapsible cores on tooling can be costly, so tapping or machining a hole can
be a more cost-effective way of achieving the same end result. The same can be
said for turning a feature on the inside of a part for instance.

3. Finishing: We offer a variety of secondary
surface finishes, including painting, plating, foiling and printing. Our
state-of-the-art equipment and experienced technicians ensure that your parts
have a high-quality and durable finish.

4. Insert/over moulding: We can insert metal,
ceramic, or plastic components into injection moulded parts during the moulding
process, providing structural integrity and additional functionality.
Overmoulding allows us to apply a second layer of material to the surface of an
injection moulded part, enhancing its appearance, durability, and
functionality.

5. Packaging and shipping: We provide custom
packaging solutions to meet your unique needs, ensuring that your parts are
protected during transit and arrive at their destination in perfect condition.
This could be just a simple outer box, or even individual packaging for each
component so parts can be shipped directly into your customer base.

No matter what your secondary operation needs
are, our team of experts will work closely with you to develop a customized
solution that meets your specific requirements. Contact us today to learn more
