HBC were delighted to have
been asked to present a paper at this year's PDM conference event on World Class
Moulding at the Telford International Centre. PDM attracted some 3000 visitors
this year.. Gordon Nicholson, project manager of NBI (New Business Introduction)
presented a feature on the Earlex Spray Gun which has been under his wing now
for the past 12 months. ' I have lived and breathed this product for 12
months' Gordon told us and added 'Its fulfilling for our work to be recognised
by an audience as well as the client and the paying public' The paper highlighted
the key design stages using moldflow, procurement and supply detail involved,
aspects of the strength of the relationships with the customer and suppliers and
also the plastic injection moulding operation down to chosen material and machine
partners. The resulting benefits are mounting as PRW journal are now ready
to run a feature case study within their magazine. The case is unusual as
HBC fulfils 90% of the parts in house, and also assembles which makes for an easier
supply chain for the client. Partners on the project included Engel, Intouch
monitoring, Moldflow and Plastribution who all contributed technically to assist
HBC to fully satisfy the project objectives. For more information on how
HBC can benefit your OEM Manufacturing project , please contact Gordon
