Design
Plastic Design Services
Our team of Designers work with you to transform your prototypes. During this process designs are optimized for mold manufacturing, injection molding, assembly, packaging and mass production.
Prototyping
Prototyping
Prototyping helps to verify the design and show areas of improvement needed before the product goes into full production; prototyping is an inexpensive way to avoid costly mistakes. At Alta Injection Molding, we use a combination of 3D printing, laser cutting and CNC machining to produce functional and realistic prototypes.

- Pre/Post Molding Inserts
Mold Manufacturing
Mold Manufacturing
Blocks of steel or aluminum are machined via CNC mill, CNC lathe, EDM (electric discharge machining) and manual mill/lathe to the specification of the mold design. Precision and fit are key to ensure the quality of the injection molded part(s).
Mold Test
Mold Test
A mold test is done when a new mold comes into production. Process parameters are optimized to produce a fast cycle time and a quality part.
Production
Production
12 injection machines ranging from 70 to 800 tonnes run 24 hours a day to keep up with client demand. Our production floor is equipped for packaging and assembly of products (if necessary). Orders can range from 500 parts to millions of parts every year.
Quality Control
