Engineering

We work directly with your designers, engineers and manufacturing personnel to reduce product development cycles, to improve product performance and to provide cost effective solutions. Our goal is to help your new products get to market on schedule and within budget. Our CAD-based systems allow us to work with you via: fax, the internet, flash media.

Material

Ultrafab has the ability to process a wide variety of materials with a wide range of physical, mechanical and chemical properties. We will work with you to produce the most cost effective solution for your application requirements. Commonly used materials include:

• Rigid PVC Exterior Grade for weatherability, impact resistance and long-term durability
• Flexible PVC Exterior Grade for economical sealing, capping and coextruded applications
• TPV’s (Thermoplastic Vulcanizates) for high performance sealing and retention
• Polyolefins for adding rigidity to TPE seals and coextruded products
• Filled Polyolefins for high stress, high heat and superior chemical resistance Engineered Resins for extreme applications (severe weather, high pressures, high load stresses, extreme heat)

Tooling

Ultrafab integrates CAD-based technology with multi-axis EDM machining centers to develop high quality extrusion dies at a reasonable price. Dies are designed and manufactured for high quality tight tolerances, excellent processing properties and long life. Tooling is designed for efficient manufacturing which means more cost effective products for you.
