Jaco PPS Injection Molding – Known for Molding the Impossible
The team at Jaco Products, experts in plastic injection molding of PPS, thrives on tackling tough challenges, and this project was no different. The PPS 40% glass-filled component is used as a shaft for tachometers and end coders. It required an impressive ± 0.0002″ tolerance, not only on the inner and outer diameters along the entire length of the part, but also on the spacing of the fingers and flange. The difficulty arose when molding the fingers, as they tended to shift out of alignment during cooling, creating a significant challenge for even the most experienced plastic injection molders.
With Jaco’s depth of experience across many plastics disciplines including injection molding, machining, and plastic stamping, we developed a multi-process solution to mold the part to near net shape using the CNC machine to the ± 0.0002″ tolerance. Using innovative plastic injection molds and a proprietary fixturing design, the exact required space tolerance of ± 0.0002″ on the fingers was achieved.
