Assembly and Automation
A well-known Plc was buying an assembled plastic injection moulding pharmaceutical product from a very well-known American multinational company. They were having quality issues with the assembled part which were not being resolved.
The Plc came to Bowles and Walker Ltd as they knew that we were the plastics moulder, to see if we could help with the situation. A manual solution for the assembly was devised and Bowles and Walker was taken on as a duel supplier.
However, Bowles and Walker Ltd was soon made the sole supplier as we were able to demonstrate much better quality and ability to react to customer requirements.
As quantities grew from the initial 10,000 parts a month, it was clear that a manual system would not be able to cope with customer requirements.
Automated assembly machines were commissioned soon after, which were put into production and have been extremely successful, producing 150,000 parts per month. Bowles and Walker are now on the 2nd generation of automated machines, delivering even higher quality and efficency.
Bowles and Walker have a proven ability to be able to cope with low and high volume moulding and assembly projects. Please contact us for further details.
