advanced rubber injection molding technology resulted in improved production, increased capacity and reduced downtime
What happens when advanced rubber injection molding technology meets real-world manufacturing demands?
Hear how partnering with DESMA USA helped transform Rahco Rubber, Inc. production operations through German-engineered rubber injection molding machines, automation, and process optimization.
- Increase production capacity by 4–5x
- Improve product quality and consistency
- Reduce machine downtime
- Streamline manufacturing operations
- Enhance repeatability and process control
- Improve overall manufacturing efficiency
Rahco Rubber, Inc. manufactures custom-engineered, high-precision rubber components, seals, and sealing solutions for OEMs and their suppliers across various industries, including agriculture, marine, electronics, and transportation.
Family-owned and operated since 1967, the company has partnered with manufacturers to design, optimize, and produce critical components to exacting specifications, with zero defects to improve product performance, manufacturability, and long-term reliability.
Rahco is an ISO 9001:2000 certified facility that emphasizes domestic production, advanced material expertise and vertically integrated manufacturing capabilities.
According to Rahco, DESMA horizontal injection molding is critical to its automated production for a range of parts produced, including low-waste molding and integrated part demolding. This was incorporated as the customer went to DESMA with a concept, allowing the salesman and Project Engineering Department to advise on the best equipment layout and automation essentials to tailor a plan to their needs for part production that minimized waste and removed unnecessary processes. “Working with DESMA presses has allowed us to get good consistency, process flows and products from the line” says Bruce Williamson, Director of Quality.
As a complete systems provider for rubber injection molding, DESMA delivers integrated solutions including molding machines, tooling, automation, cold runner systems, and machine connectivity technologies designed to help manufacturers improve productivity and reduce operational challenges.
