Plastics manufacturing involves more than simply “primary” injection molding or extruding parts. Fully completed components and products necessitates secondary process operations to seamlessly perform. A “Secondary Operation” is any operation or process that modifies a part (or multiple parts) through the addition of functions, features, decorating & assembly, creating “value-add”. Secondary operations are performed to complete the myriad of part components into a fully functional end-product. In many industries including medical, virtually every product requires secondary operations during manufacturing. Secondary process operations frequently advance technology breakthroughs. Secondary operations add value and increases profitability. Ironically, some companies believe secondary processes are not important and therefore do not allocate resources. When secondary processes (e.g. bonding/joining, printing, laser marking, decorating & assembly etc.) are minimalized – which ends up costing companies both time and money. At SABREEN, secondary plastics manufacturing process operations is our core business. We instill in our clients “design for manufacturing” which creates strategic advantages and increased profitability.
