REAL FEATURES

SEE • TOUCH & FEEL Attributes of Injection Molding

 

Some things are hard to imagine, like surface textures.

That's why we NERDS, at ASH INDUSTRIES, invented this N.E.R.D. (New Engineering Reference Device) which demonstrates real world molded features that occur in injection molding.

 

This clever device can save you thousands of dollars and prevent mistakes from happening. Simply by knowing more upfront.
​
How did we come up with this tool?
​
For the last 30 years we've noticed that there are simple design changes that can save customers money and help avoid costly design mistakes before making the tooling.

 

We have done the homework so that you don't have to. 
​
ASH is your true one-stop shop for all things molded and a favorite of engineers because we walk the talk.

ASH FACTS:

    • Thermoplastic Injection Molding

    • Rotomolding

    • Tool & Die manufacturing

    • Silicone Molding

    • 3D Printing Production

    • Design for Manufacturing (DFM)

    • Low volume 3D production

    • 3D Plastic Printing

    • Metal Injection Molding

  • Yes, ASH can help you manufacture your parts in low volume. We can even 3D print your first prototypes. When you want to have less than 1000 but don't want to pay for full production runs we have a flat rate low volume program called SUPERMOLD.  This can have many benefits, including a faster time to market and a low initial investment but still allow you to produce high-quality parts.

    ​

  • Of course NDA's are necessary to protect your IP.  We value privacy and confidentiality and that is one of you main reasons for making parts in the USA. NDA's are enforceable here unlike sourcing overseas.  Confidentiality is one of the most important factors in choosing a new molding supplier.

  • We are ISO 9001 compliant with a ISO Class 7 medical cleanroom.

  • Yes we do, besides our founder graduating from Massachusetts Institute of Technology with a degree in 6-1, Electrical Engineering-Hardware, we also have a biomedical engineer, mechanical engineers and other manufacturing engineers on staff to help you think smarter to save money.
