Case Study - Miniature Precision Components (MPC)

As a leading thermoplastic components and assemblies manufacturer, MPC produces more than 450 different parts, manufacturing thousands to millions of each part every year. The Prairie du Chien plant has 40 thermoplastic injection molding machines and a liquid silicone rubber (LSR) injection molding machine that use a variety of materials and polymers. To ensure that the company meets its customer deadlines, as well as quality standards, the molding machines and molds must be maintained and cleaned regularly.

The ability to clean online and at any time has increased cycles between scheduled preventive maintenance by 250 percent and reduced scheduled cleaning man hours by 81 percent. Cleaning with dry ice blasting is also helping to extend the life of MPC’s tooling by facilitating regular non-abrasive thorough cleaning and reducing machine disassembly. And possibly most important, clean molds help to eliminate defects and ensure high quality end products.
