Oil & Gas Injection Molding Plant Capabilities
When you work with Elimold, we get involved early in product design and development projects to optimize product specifications, performance criteria, material selection, and manufacturability. By leveraging our resources during the design phase, we can address all issues early in the development cycle, helping to control expenses and reduce time to market. We can combine the design flexibility of injection molding with engineered plastic resins that offer exceptional strength and durability, and we can engineer metal-to-plastic conversions to improve component integrity while reducing weight and cost.
In addition, our modern, well-maintained, state-of-the-art facility features equipment rated from 60 to 3,500 tons, handling shot sizes from less than 1 ounce to 185 ounces. As a turnkey supplier for oil & gas injection molding projects, we have a team of mold and tool professionals, as well as an in-house injection mold making shop. Well-designed, precision-made, and meticulously maintained tools, combined with advanced process controls, enable us to hold tight tolerances. We also offer numerous value-added services to streamline your supply chain while providing measurable cost savings.
Furthermore, we have invested considerable time and resources in developing our ISO 9001:2008 quality management program, which places a high priority on all factors involved in the production process and fosters a culture of continuous improvement. As a result, we are able to manage both small projects as well as projects requiring tens of thousands of units on very short notice.

How We Can Help
Through our expertise in plastic injection molding, parts manufacturing, and metal-to-plastic conversions, Elimold is uniquely positioned to help industrial manufacturers serving the oil and gas industry, to meet the challenges of today’s market head-on. We work as a strategic partner with these manufacturers, helping them find ways to reduce cost without shirking their commitment to serving their customers effectively. Sometimes, the solution might be designing plastic parts to replace their more expensive metal counterparts. Other times, it might be merely providing more durable parts for long-term industrial use. We help manufacturers consider their costs, products, and customers, and come up with solutions that trim overheads without sacrificing quality or durability.
Strong capabilities in small series and prototyping
Avoiding errors is particularly important during product development. As early as the product prototyping phase, we use tools such as FEM and Moldflow simulation to optimize and coordinate product design and tool concepts. The consistent application of product and process failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA) ensures that any impact on the product or application is identified at an early stage. Supplier development and close cooperation on purchased materials, including the necessary qualifications, are also part of our product introduction process. We also meet requirements such as APQP, PPAP and even certificates of conformity. In addition, for many applications in the oil and gas industry, we can also use injection molding for rapid prototyping and small series production. We rely on efficient tool and mold concepts as well as flexible automation solutions that support our employees in the subsequent process steps. Elimold also offers 3D printing services for creating test samples, which rounds off our capabilities.
