Optimizing Custom Molded Electrical Components

Injection molding is a vital asset across a wide range of industries due to its customization opportunities, cost-effectiveness, and efficient production. In the electronics industry, custom molded parts play a key role in many products because they are lightweight, durable, and provide electrical and heat insulation. For electronics manufacturers seeking to optimize their custom molded electrical components, you can prepare your project for success with a high-volume manufacturer that specializes in turnkey solutions. 

Turnkey partners with in-house secondary services deliver enhanced value and ensure every step of your project is completed under one roof, on time, and within budget. These partners will ensure your custom molded parts are well-designed and produced in the most efficient and cost-saving manner, helping you move forward faster with the right team on your side. 

Read on to explore our top tips for optimizing your parts and what positions Deluxe as the ideal partner. 

A Guide to Optimizing Custom Molded Electrical Components

1. Choose Design for Manufacturability

Designing for manufacturability is the process of designing parts to make the manufacturing process easier. This typically yields a higher quality product at a lower cost. Designing for manufacturability helps ensure your project is set up for success by mitigating flaws and creating the most efficient design to serve your needs. 

The design of your product is pivotal not only to ensure it performs flawlessly for your customers in its designated application but also that it is optimized to be produced in the most cost-effective manner possible. With the right design, you can enjoy cost savings without compromising the quality and functionality of your custom molded electrical components.

2. Consider High-Volume Production

Once your product design is finalized and you are prepared to move forward with manufacturing, choosing high-volume production can ensure you maximize the cost-effectiveness of your orders. In addition to maximizing efficiency in production and cost, high-volume production allows you to be prepared to deliver products that meet the demand of your customers whenever they need.   

High-volume production can help you trim excess costs by shaving off additional shipping and production costs, and it optimizes your part’s production process by equipping you with the volume of products you need at every stage.

3. Rely on Advanced Automation

Automation helps you optimize your custom molded electrical components and shave time off of your production schedule. Manufacturers that can implement automation into their processes can save you time and money on the production process due to the high-efficiency and high-accuracy nature of automated processes. 

At Deluxe, our automation enables us to serve our customers more efficiently and accurately, working 24/7 to serve your needs and push your project across the finish line.

4. Leverage Turnkey Operations

When you choose a turnkey injection molder for your custom molded electrical components, you can enjoy start-to-finish support that addresses your needs at every stage. From part design to secondary operations and inventory management, turnkey manufacturers are there every step of the way to make sure your processes run smoothly and your product is of the highest quality. 

Turnkey manufacturers can also save you money on your manufacturing and inventory management costs. Since you don’t have to find another partner and don’t have to pay for shipping, your costs can be greatly reduced by choosing a manufacturer that has the capabilities you need.
