Equipment and Automation

When it comes to injection molding, pad printing, and prototype production, Forum is committed to continuous improvement and capital investments. We endlessly evaluate our customers’ needs and acquire new machinery and personnel to accommodate these developments without compromising on quality or quantity..

Our current equipment includes:

  • Injection Molds: Our facility runs 46 injection molding presses, from 11 to 200 tons, for 24 hours a day, 5–6 days per week, with on-shift quality control and technical support. These include micro molding, insert molding, standard injection molding, and other specialty molding systems.
  • Pad Printing: We have 18 offset pad printing machines used to transfer two-dimensional ink images onto three-dimensional parts.
  • Laser Marking: We offer services via the 3-Axis UV laser, which is known for its superior marking quality and optimal flexibility along with the added benefits of increased marking speed and improved production capacity.
  • Free Form Injection Molding: Our AddiFab Toolmaker is optimized for manufacturing of 3D-printed tooling. With precision and repeatability, it delivers printed tools with detailed features as small as 10µm.
  • CT Scanning: Our RX Solutions DeskTom CT Scanner provides non-damaging x-ray inspection, measurement, and evaluation of all surfaces of complex and freeform 3D injection molded parts.
  • Optical Measuring: We utilize three top-of-the-line optical measuring solutions: Keyence IM-7000 and LM-1100 systems for instant automated measuring and the Micro Vu Vertex 342 tabletop system for high-resolution, camera-based measurements.
  • EDM Mold Fabrication: Our Charmilles Roboform® 350 CNC EDM electrical discharge machine allows us to fabricate manufacturing molds and precision dies with highly polished finishes and micron-sized details.
  • Milling Machine: The Mikron HSM 500 MoldMaster high-speed milling machine by GF Machining Solutions is an all-in-one system for producing a versatile range of mold and die-related components.
  • 3D Printing: Raise Pro2 3D filament printer for standard three-dimensional prototype printing and ProJet® Multi Jet Printer (MJP) 3600 Series for fine details and smooth finishes on high-performance parts.
