Better Products for Less

A complete-process vision for injection molding to give you a manufacturing edge that reduces costs, improves performance, enables tight tolerances and delivers consistently reproduceable quality.

About Us

Over 30 years ago Bill Kristensen Sr. started Hi-Tech, with the goal to create a full service facility that could support customers from mold builds, molding, machining and all post molding/machining operations. We have developed proprietary manufacturing processes for high-temperature molding, thus becoming a unique resource for cost-effective metal substitution. We are experts in advanced thermoplastic materials, our service model is stronger than ever.

IT’S ELECTRIC: EMI/RFI Shielding in Thermoplastics

January 14, 2021

Hi-Tech News, Molding

Injection moldable Thermoplastic have always been used to save costs and this is due to the very fast process that can generate significant detail in a part. The cost savings get even larger when product designers begin to leverage Thermoplastics in a functional way beyond just a covering or a skin. Functional thermoplastics bring additional properties to the product that uses them and in this discussion. Below we’ll discuss EMI/RFI Shielding in Thermoplastics.

You can still solve part issues after you build a tool

October 28, 2020

Hi-Tech News

There are three major elements in thermoplastic design. Each is an opportunity to improve production efficiency, end-product performance and quality.

The first opportunity is part design, with material selection being a close second and mold design third. Optimizing the three plastic part design inputs – part design, material and mold design – are the best way to avoid issues.

Thermoplastic Part Improvements using a Foaming Agent

September 17, 2020

Hi-Tech News

Thermoplastics have a lot of good attributes, but they aren’t perfect. Thicker ribs or walls will show sink marks. Surfaces can show the signs of minor impacts or scuffs.

Larger parts with thicker sections require longer cycle times to ensure there is no part deflection upon mold opening. When part designs result in molding issues, chemical foaming agents can be an effective tool to improve the finished product.
