Offering more options and flexibility, Minnesota Rubber and Plastics present custom miniature components

July 13, 2015 By MDO Editor

Mold Components

Many of these polymer components are as small as 1 mm in diameter and weigh under 0.018 gram.

Enhanced component or assembly performance often requires advanced polymers including custom blends. This is particularly true designing fluid delivery systems, or for many static or dynamic applications. Minnesota Rubber and Plastics molds miniature components for these devices using custom blends of polyether ether ketone (PEEK), polycarbonate, polysulphone, Nylon, polyethylene, polypropylene, FKM and EPDM elastomers.

Many of these components are as small as 1 mm in diameter and weigh under 0.018 gram. Some of the performance benefits required of these small components include sterilizability, chemical compatibility, biocompatibility, toughness, durability and hydrolytic stability at elevated temperatures.

Combining these miniature components into an assembly that includes specialized seals and sealing devices is another core expertise of Minnesota Rubber and Plastics. By providing this range of options, designers are able to develop the best approach for solving a challenging application with an achievable, cost-effective result.
