INJECTION MOLDING
From Pellets to Parts
Depending on customer needs, we can provide separate functions for each project. Small enough to react, we are able to configure into assembly-style production for rapid turnover.
At Darter, we conserve resources to help keep customers’ costs low. This includes recycling of appropriate material when possible.
As a project evolves, our services evolve to meet those needs. Whatever the specifications, Darter has the resources to provide multi-piece components, as well as secondary operations including drilling, tapping and inserts.
