Proto Plastics Utilizes Conair ResinWorks Drying System

ResinWorks

TIPP CITY, Ohio, June 17, 2015 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- The Conair ResinWorks(TM) system offers a new level of manufacturing efficiency for plastic injection molding operations at Proto Plastics, of Tipp City, Ohio.

The drying system consolidates resin handling and pre-conditioning into a central area, allowing material changes to take place quickly, cleanly, and safely away from the processing machine.

"The ResinWorks system allow us to dramatically decrease the amount of time it takes to dry the materials we use in the injection molding process," says Dave Gagnon, Director of Operations at Proto Plastics. "This means we're able to move through molding jobs faster due to less time spent on the drying that happens between molding operations."

The simplified resin dehumidification is the heart of the ResinWorks system, where multiple hoppers are supplied on a common pre-plumbed, pre-wired sled, and connected to a dehumidifying dryer to provide superior drying and maximum productivity. Individual sleds are connected to form an efficient, centralized resin drying area supplying Proto Plastics's injection molding machines, with a wide array of dried resins.

"There are cost savings benefits to this for sure," says Gagnon. "We now have one dryer for 4 hoppers, so the ResinWorks drying system eliminates the use of 3 individual dryers, saving energy and money."

Plastic injection molding is an extremely competitive industry, so cost savings that can be passed along to the customer are essential to business growth. The drying system which went online in May, has already begun delivering benefits from its introduction within the Proto Plastics injection molding operation.

custom plastic injection molding

TIPP CITY, Ohio, Jan. 26, 2015 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Proto Plastics of Tipp City today announced the roll-out of their new website at http://protoplastics.com/. Proto Plastics has been in the business of custom plastic injection molding and design since 1969, and their philosophy is simple.

Success comes from earning the trust and loyalty of every customer they serve. Their experienced team has been doing just that through "right-the-first-time," service for nearly five decades. Therefore, as Internet applications continually evolve in the marketplace Proto Plastics' commitment to clearly communicating their services and improving their client experience naturally led to the development of a new website that could keep up with their spirit of innovation.

Proto Plastics partnered with Bash Foo, a digital marketing company also in Tipp City to build a new website that would better communicate their services, products and solutions. Having been in the industrial space for many years, Proto Plastics operates in a 65,000 sq. ft. building just north of Dayton, Ohio. In it, they manage all engineering, tooling, injection molding, and assembly activities, as well as warehousing for finished goods and purchased assembly parts. With so much to offer, it was time to make their website more intuitive and informative.

Marketing Director Jamie Dewing shares this about the site, "The focus for the redesign was to make it intuitive so that the layout and titles manage to answer questions in the order either new or returning injection molding clients might ask. We also manage to keep text short and to-the-point."

In addition to a new website, Proto Plastics is reaching out to the Miami Valley's manufacturing community letting them know how Proto Plastics can be the answer to many of their business challenges.

"What their clients find is that Proto Plastics can not only meet aggressive timelines but also reduce manufacturing costs through some pretty innovative plastic molding techniques," said Mike McDermott, President of Bash Foo. "The demand for injection molding continues to grow in the Dayton area, and Proto Plastics is certainly poised to take a commanding role."

This new website is just the most recent incarnation of Proto Plastics commitment to helping local manufacturers succeed through innovative designs and solutions as well as compressed timelines.
