Customised Polymer Components

Stanford Advanced Materials (SAM) provides technical and material support for customised polymer components. It utilises additive manufacturing to produce rapid prototypes and flexible series production. It specialises in material processing including casting and blown film extrusion, customised polymer extrusion and injection-moulded parts.

We utilise our expertise in sintering, direct forming and CNC precision machining to deliver components that meet stringent performance criteria. Our cutting and finishing techniques include laser cutting, stamping, slotting and rewinding. We also manufacture customised tubing, perform adhesive bonding and polishing, thereby meeting precise engineering specifications.

Additive Manufacturing

3D printing processes are employed to fabricate customised components from materials including metals, ceramics and alloys.

Cast extrusion and blown film extrusion

Cast extrusion and blown film extrusion processes manufacture polymer films. Engineers customise film properties to align with specified packaging requirements. Design parameters were verified using controlled production methods, achieving film thickness consistency of 0.005 mm. Engineers implement standardised testing to confirm film durability and compliance with industry licences. Researchers optimise production parameters to consistently meet diverse packaging standards.

CNC precision machining of engineering plastics

CNC precision machining of technical plastics produces components with tolerances of ±0.005 mm. Engineers conduct regular measurements using calibrated instruments every 30 minutes. The process generates over 10 000 components per month. Industrial companies use these components in automotive, aerospace and electronics sectors. Quality standards are met throughout the machining process.

Customised Polymer Extrusions

Custom polymer extrusions are products with an elongated form. Engineers design these extrusions to meet specific dimensional requirements. Engineers press softened polymer granules through a nozzle under controlled conditions. The granules are heated to a defined temperature before extrusion. This process yields uniform shapes and tailored profiles that satisfy design criteria.

Customised Pipes

Engineers manufacture pipes to defined dimensional tolerances and prescribed material specifications for research applications in the UK. Researchers incorporate these pipes in experimental setups where they measure performance parameters precisely.

Forming, Bonding and Polishing

Shaping, bonding and polishing are essential manufacturing processes. Shaping modifies material geometry to within dimensional tolerances of ±0.1 mm. Bonding forms joints with an average adhesive strength of 25 MPa. Polishing produces surfaces with a roughness value below 0.5 µm.

Injection moulded parts

Injection moulded parts are precision components manufactured by injecting molten material into customised moulds that meet customer specifications. They are suitable for mass production.

Laser Cutting

Laser cutting facilitates material processing at speeds of up to 1 200 mm/s and achieves tolerances of ±0.05 mm. It permits the manufacture of designs with feature sizes as small as 0.2 mm.

From a single item to series production

Individual production denotes the manufacture of a single customised product or item. Engineers tailor it to meet specific requirements and unique design specifications.

Precision Plastic Machining

The precision plastic processing system manufactures customised plastic components to meet defined technical standards for engineering applications. Standard measurement protocols were applied to verify dimensional tolerances within ±0.01 mm.

Sintering and Direct Forming

Sintering and direct forming processes shape materials. They consolidate powders to achieve defined material properties. Powders are densified through controlled procedures. Engineered methods ensure precision in fabrication. The final products demonstrate durability.

Cutting and rewinding

The process cuts materials to specified widths. It rewinds materials for standardised handling. Width tolerances are maintained within ±0.5 mm. Engineers record dimensions using calibrated instruments. Customised application requirements are addressed by the procedure.

Embossing and Stamping

Stamping and embossing techniques shape materials by cutting or pressing them. The resulting forms and designs meet the requirements for mass production.

Technical and Material Support

Technical and material support provides advice for material selection and the implementation of technical solutions.
