In keeping with Triad Plastic Technologies’ goal to utilize state-of-the-art manufacturing solutions…
Plastics Division
Plastics Division recently purchased and installed 3 brand new Whitman 5-axis robots and one automated runner picker. As with any manufacturing process, consistence is paramount. The less variables the better. Utilizing robots allows Triad to completely automate the molding process to ensure a stable injection molding cycle. Without robots, an operator is responsible for opening the door of the machine, removing the molded parts, and closing the door to begin the next cycle. All the while, the molten material is waiting to be shot into the mold. The more control Triad has over the residence time of the molten material, the tighter to process we can hold. The tighter the process, the better the part.
Tooling Division
Our Tooling Division just took delivery of 2 brand new Haas VM-3, 3-axis Moldmaker CNC Vertical Machining Centers. These automated machining centers can be programmed to run around the clock. While we’re all asleep they keep working, increasing capacity without added overhead. Everybody wins!
