At AKRON Porcelain & Plastics Company’s ceramic injection molding are custom designed by our in-house engineering department, employing CAD systems and technical expertise. Prototyping, testing and evaluating are all integral aspects of producing the highest integrity parts. Our various CIM formulations are well suited for many applications including electrical, refractory and leachable investment casting cores.

AKRON’s CIM has the following advantages:

• Ideal for high-volume production of complex ultra-precision net shapes and sizes.
• offers the superior performance characteristics of ceramics along with the ability to attain extremely tight and uniform tolerances (+/-0.005″).
• Has the advantage of high-hardness, mechanical strength, wear-resistance and dimensional stability.
• Operates at high temperatures, with excellent electrical insulation and dielectric properties.
• Accommodates high volumes with multi-cavity tooling.
• Shorter lead-times and lower expense than convectional compression molding.
