Book Mold Tooling

Aberdeen Technologies, Inc. is an IS09002/QS9000 registered custom molder specializing in insert molding of medical devices which require critical tolerances. Our special Book mold design allows secure placement of delicate inserts such as cannula, tubing, wires or filter membrane into the mold on a horizontal surface. Once in place the top mold half is gently closed around the inserts, preventing damage and insuring proper alignment in the mold during the clamping and injection cycle. Multiple BOOK MOLDS used in conjunction with a rotary table insert molding machine provide maximum production capacity and flexibility by allowing parts to cure in the mold while indexing. A product mix can also be accomplished on this type of set-up. Typical devices produced with BOOK MOLDS include spinal, epidural and biopsy needles, multi-lumen catheters, filters, procedural instruments and pacemaker components. Aberdeen can also provide mold sampling and first article approval, initial start-up production, and long term or back-up contract insert molding. Turnkey systems which utilize BOOK MOLD tooling are also available from Aberdeen.
