Expertise
Injection Molding Services
At BeraTek Industries, we’re about pushing the boundaries with innovation and expertise. Using the latest tech and a talented team, we craft high-precision, high-performance parts that take on even the toughest design challenges. We’re constantly refining our process, staying ahead of trends to deliver fast, reliable, and cost-effective solutions that help your product stand out and succeed.
Rubber Molding
We also specialize in rubber molding for parts requiring flexibility, durability, and shock absorption. Our capabilities include various rubber materials to meet your specific application requirements.
Overmolding
Overmolding involves molding plastic over a pre-existing part, which can be made of metal, plastic, or other materials. This process is ideal for creating parts with soft grips, flexible hinges, or parts requiring a two-texture finish.
Two-Shot Injection Molding
Our two-shot injection molding process allows for the production of complex parts with two different materials or colors in a single cycle. This method enhances product functionality and aesthetic appeal while reducing manufacturing time and costs.
In-Mold Decorating
In-mold decorating combines molding and decoration into a single process, creating durable, high-quality finishes that are permanently bonded to the surface. This technique is widely used for products requiring long-lasting durability and a seamless appearance.
Insert Molding
Insert molding involves encapsulating a pre-placed insert within the molded part, which can be made of metal or another plastic. This method is ideal for producing parts that require threaded inserts, bushings, or complex mechanical features.
Low & High-Volume Plastic Injection Molding
Our low and high-volume plastic injection molding services cater to a wide range of production needs. Whether you require a small batch for prototyping or large-scale production runs, our advanced facilities and experienced team can handle it all.
Secondary Operations
We recognize that injection molded products and assemblies often need additional services. Our secondary operations enhance appearance, functionality, and overall quality to meet your exact requirements.
Ultrasonic Welding
High-frequency vibrations to create a solid-state weld between plastic components.
Ideal for complex or delicate parts, ultrasonic welding ensures reliable, durable assemblies without the need for adhesives or fasteners.
Pad Printing
High-quality application of logos, text, graphics, or intricate designs.
Ideal for parts with complex shapes, curved surfaces, or hard-to-reach areas, pad printing is perfect for branding, labeling, and adding detailed visuals to products.
Light Assembly
Combines individual plastic components into finished or semi-finished products.
Ideal for items requiring minimal assembly, such as snap-fits, fastening, or adding hardware.
Packaging
The protection and presentation of finished products to enhance their appeal for end-users.
Ideal for products that require careful handling or need to meet specific retail or shipping standards.

Injection Molding FAQs
What is injection molding?
Injection molding is a manufacturing process that produces parts by injecting molten material into a mold. At BeraTek Industries, we use injection molding to produce high-quality plastic parts efficiently and cost-effectively, whether you need low-volume production runs or full-scale manufacturing.
What types of plastics do you use for injection molding?
We work with a wide range of thermoplastics, including ABS, polypropylene, polyethylene, polycarbonate, and nylon. Our engineering team will recommend the best material based on your product’s performance requirements, durability, and cost considerations.
What is the typical lead time for injection molding projects?
Lead times vary depending on mold complexity and order size. For new tooling, the process generally takes 6-8 weeks from design for manufacturing (DFM) approval to T1 sampling. Once sample parts are approved, production runs can be completed in days to a couple of weeks, depending on quantity.
How much does injection molding cost?
Costs depend on the part design, material, tooling complexity, and production volume. While there is an upfront cost for mold creation, injection molding becomes highly cost-effective for medium to high-volume production due to low per-part costs.
Can BeraTek help with design for manufacturability (DFM)?
Absolutely. Our team specializes in design for manufacturability (DFM), ensuring your product design is optimized for efficient and cost-effective injection molding without compromising function or quality.
What industries do you serve with injection molding?
We provide injection molding services for a variety of industries, including consumer products, medical devices, industrial equipment, and startups developing innovative solutions.
Do you offer low-volume injection molding?
Yes. At BeraTek, we understand that not every project requires large production runs. We offer low-volume injection molding to support startups, product testing, or niche product lines needing smaller quantities with the same high quality as full-scale production.
Can BeraTek assist with prototyping before injection molding?
Definitely. We often use rapid prototyping methods, such as 3D printing or CNC machining, and urethane casting to create prototype parts before investing in injection molding tooling. This helps validate your design and ensure it meets all requirements before moving to production.
What are the advantages of injection molding?
Injection molding offers many benefits, including:
- High production efficiency and speed
- Consistent part quality and precision
- Wide material selection
- Low per-unit costs for medium to high volumes
