PLAMO solves issues of dimensional accuracy and wall thickness through injection compression molding, enabling a cost reduction of about one-third.
Compared to machined products, PLAMO's injection compression molding can achieve approximately one-third (as a guideline) reduction in manufacturing costs. In situations where machining is applicable: 1. High precision (geometric tolerances, dimensional tolerances, etc.) ⇒ PLAMO technology applicable 2. Thick-walled shapes (which cannot be molded in the first place) ⇒ PLAMO technology applicable 3. Small production lots (frequent prototyping or shape changes, etc.) ⇒ not applicable Example) Calculated at 3,000 units/year* Machined product: part cost ¥600/unit, annual expenses ¥1.8 million PLAMO molded product: part cost ¥200/unit, mold production cost ¥1 million, annual expenses ¥1.6 million It can be less than machining costs within a year. If production continues over multiple years, it leads to significant cost reductions. *Subject to change based on product shape, materials, and other conditions; this is merely a guideline. If you provide product drawings, machining costs, and annual production plans, we will offer a free simulation of manufacturing costs. Additionally, we are open to consultations regarding requests such as avoiding asset capitalization of molds. ★PLAMO provides financial support for parts development for a limited number of cases each year.

basic information
【Why is it possible to respond with PLAMO technology?】 PLAMO has developed its own injection compression molding (IMP, IMM method), and by using this technology, we manufacture high-performance parts equivalent to those produced by cutting processes. This processing method also requires molds, just like conventional injection molding, so a production lot that justifies the significant investment in molds is necessary. 【Experience the areas that can only be achieved with PLAMO's technology.】 *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.*
