Working with Us for Your Custom Injection Molding Needs
We’ve built strong relationships with local businesses in Oregon because of our commitment to strong communication and transparency. Our size also allows us to be more personal and agile than larger manufacturers. We are happy to work with businesses and projects of any size, with no minimum purchase requirement.
1. Show Us the Details—We’ll Provide an Estimate
Once you reach out to our team, tell us about the needs of your project, and send over any related documents, we can give you a quote. We’ll talk with you to ensure we have all the information we need to get started and give you an estimate on tooling and per-unit costs.
2. We Review and Adapt Your Designs
After you’ve approved the estimate we provided, we’ll start working with our trusted mold builders to review the design documents and make any necessary edits. We’ll ensure that the part is moldable and will meet your expectations.
3. We Send Prototypes and Samples
Once we’ve reviewed and approved the mold design, we’ll send you the initial samples from T-1 testing for your approval. Once we get your sign-off, we’ll complete the final polishing and texturing of the mold and prepare it for shipping.
4. Production Begins
After we receive the mold from our partners, we’ll disassemble, inspect, and re-grease it for our own testing. Then we’ll send you a final sample for approval before going into full production.
How Much Does Plastic Injection Molding Cost?
There are several factors that will influence the cost of your custom injection molding project. They can include:
- Output quantity: A larger quantity of parts typically leads to a lower per-unit cost. However, our team at Tamarack is glad to work with you on small orders or even single parts.
- Complexity: Pricing is also determined by the intricacy or simplicity of the part. For example, a simple part that requires a single molding cavity is usually less expensive than a more complex part that requires lifters, slides, or hot runners.
- Size: Another cost factor is the overall footprint of the part. Smaller parts typically have shorter cycle times and use less material, so they cost less than larger parts that require more material.
Why Choose Tamarack?
In addition to our excellent customer service and local connection, Tamarack Industries is also a great choice because of our commitment to the environment. We take our name from the Tamarack tree, which self-regenerates each year and can live for generations.
At Tamarack, we work hard to use recycled materials wherever possible. We utilize an array of plastic types in our production process, including HDPE, PP, ABS, nylon, and acetyl. The plastics we use take less energy to produce than other materials and have lower emissions. Furthermore, your custom injection molded parts will be produced in nearby Washington state, which further lowers our carbon footprint.
