Reaction Injection Molding (RIM)

Osborne Delivers A New Dimension to RIM Molding cell_top.gif (47902 bytes)
Normally RIM cannot compete economically with other processes for intermediate volumes of 500 to 50,000 parts per year because of high tooling and operating costs. But we have successfully developed low-cost composite tooling and production methods that enable us to be highly competitive – even at very low production volumes.

Durable, Low-Cost Composite RIM Molds Offer Production Flexibility

  • Market test your new concepts inexpensively 
  • Keep investment tied to market success
  • Increase to full production as sales grow
  • Profit from low- and medium-volume
    RIM production and from long mold service life
  • Then convert to high-speed metal tooling for 
    high-volume production when your market dictates

Osborne Handles Larger Parts and Tougher Specificationsscreen.gif (88474 bytes)

  • Large, heavy, high-performance parts up to 25 sq ft and 50 lbs and more are routine for us

  • Platen size and tonnage of our presses can handle your largest parts

  • Precise control of reaction chemistry, cure times, additives, and reinforcements means we can meet or exceed your toughest product requirements

  • We design RIM polymer formulations for everything from tough elastomers to rigid structural foams

Quality is Always Assured

  • SPC methods control all phases of production
    to ensure defect-free deliveries
  • All incoming RIM material must meet
    exacting quality tests
  • All parts are fully post-cured under
    controlled conditions for optimum physical properties
  • Our quality assurance laboratory provides NIST-traceable measurements for accurate SPC control
