Manufacturing processes

Compression Moulding
Compression moulding is a manufacturing process which uses heat and pressure to mould plastic resins and thermosets into a desired shape
Laser cutting machine
Advanced Machining Processes
Advanced machining processes are cutting-edge techniques used to shape, cut, or remove material from a workpiece
Metal Forming
During metal forming, the metal is plastically deformed by a force that exceeds the material yield strength where strain hardening occurs
Mechanical Power Transmission

Mechanical power transmission is the transfer of energy from where it’s generated to a place where it is used to perform work using simple machines, linkages and mechanical power transmission elements.

Most common injection moulding plastics
One of the most important aspects of any product design involving plastic parts is to select a suitable injection moulding material
Shaft Splines & Serrations
Shaft splines & serrations are used to transmit rotational torque on the same axis and connect mechanical elements such as gears and pulleys.
