We are proud to share that Plastics Technology recently featured a picture of Midgard’s Operations Manager, Weston Brown , working hands on a Universal Robots (UR), in their article, "Why are Cobots Popping up in injection molding processes?”. The article explores how collaborative robots (Cobots) are reshaping manufacturing environments, particularly in injection molding.

Each one of us is excited to see national publications recognizing the innovation happening in small to mid-sized manufacturing facilities. As we continue to grow and adapt to meet evolving customer needs, implementing smart technologies such as Cobots will remain a key part of our strategy.

Check out the full article below to learn more about how Cobots are changing the game in plastics processing.

At Midgard Inc, we know that designing a part for plastic injection molding involves more than just creating a 3D model or 2D print. Without early consideration of Design for Manufacturability (DFM), companies risk costly delays, tooling changes, and inefficiencies. By identifying potential issues before tooling begins, we help customers save time, reduce costs, and streamline production.

DFM is the process of evaluating a part’s design to ensure it can be manufactured efficiently and cost-effectively. This includes reviewing geometry, material selection, mold-ability, and identifying potential production challenges. Addressing these factors early helps avoid expensive changes later.

Several key elements affect how well a part can be injection molded. Draft angles are essential because they allow parts to be released smoothly from the mold. Without them, components can get stuck during ejection and cause defects or damage. Uniform wall thickness is also critical; sudden variations can result in warping, sink marks, or stress points due to uneven cooling. Gate placement (point where molten plastic enters the cavity) greatly impacts material flow. Poor placement can lead to air pockets, weld lines, or weak areas. A well-designed cooling system shortens cycle times and improves consistency. Finally, material choice. Different plastics have varying flow characteristics, shrink rates, and durability that influence product performance.

Often, design issues only appear once production starts, resulting in costly revisions. Integrating DFM early allows for the identification of potential trouble spots before any tooling is done. This early-stage collaboration helps optimize mold design, reduces the risk of defects, and eliminates unnecessary delays.

At our family-owned company, DFM is a collaborative and proactive process. Our team analyzes each design early, working closely with customers to refine it for manufacturability. Using advanced mold flow simulation software, we predict how plastic will fill the mold and make informed decisions on gate placement and cooling layout. We also provide 3D printed parts for reference. This ensures accuracy from the start and minimizes costly rework later.

Midgard Inc. helps businesses bring their products to market faster and more efficiently by optimizing their designs for injection molding. If you’re developing a new plastic part, let’s talk about how we can help you refine it for success. Click below to get in touch with us:

At Midgard Inc, we understand that keeping molds in top condition is essential to meeting industry demands. By offering large-scale mold maintenance and repair, with small business quality and care, we can ensure high-quality parts but with reduced downtime with potential cost savings. Much like most small American Made businesses, we take an in-depth approach to mold care with our preventive maintenance.

Before every production run, each mold is rigorously inspected for damage and excessive wear. This includes checking for broken ejector pins/blades to looking for scarred bushings or damaged slides. And the overall functionality of the moving components along with the tool’s overall readiness, from the condition of the grease to the water lines and hydraulics of the mold. All preventive measures are to ensure the customer’s product will be ready at a moment's notice.

Some of our molds can be in the press for very lengthy runs when running larger quantities or longer cycles. So, we offer our customers our premium preventive services. Like our own in-house dry ice blaster to ensure peak performance is kept the through all stages of cycles on the production floor. Naturally we are more than willing to remove the tool for part set cleanings to maintain consistent tolerances. The goal is to have the Customers expensive tooling running as efficiently as possible to meet every day demands without unnecessary delays.

After each job, every mold is tagged and sent to our in-house tool shop for preventative maintenance (PM). This allows us to catch and address any minor damage and to have a clear line of communication with a customer regarding the condition of their molds. In practicing this, we can try to halt any downtime so the customer can meet their production needs. Additionally, we extend the lifespan of expensive tooling and reduce costly repairs. Since all maintenance is done in-house, we eliminate the need for costly outsourcing while ensuring quick turnaround times. Thus resulting in faster production, reduced downtime, and a more cost-effective service for our customers.

By Prioritizing mold maintenance, we maintain the high standards that a customer expects. Our in-house capabilities allow us to be very competitive in the injection molding industry. Along with offering tool building stateside to keep manufacturing here in the U.S.A.

The goal is simple: to deliver reliable, high-quality plastic injection molded parts while providing cost-effective, efficient solutions for our customers. With a strong focus on preventative maintenance, we ensure that every mold is ready to perform whenever it’s needed.
