Fabricated Parts
Polymics,® Ltd. is able to combine machining processes to give you a complete solution that has been tailored to your application. All of our finished parts are completed to customer requirements and can be made from customer-provided drawings.
If your existing parts are not working, Polymics,® Ltd. is ready to help you upgrade to a better solution by replacing the material or providing you with a better-fitting component.
Compression Molded Shapes
Hot Compression Molded shapes manufactured by Polymics,® Ltd. provide engineers and machinists with the quality and performance required for the most demanding applications. Polymics,® Ltd. is currently Compression Molding Plates, Rods, Tubes, Discs, and Near Net Shapes.
Compression Molding is among the most economical of options because it offers a wide range of near net sizes and produces materials with low minimum order quantities. As a result, users can buy exactly the amount of material needed without having to pay additional charges for tooling or small run set-ups.
