Micro Mold, an Erie-based custom mold manufacturer and medical injection molder, recently announced that it is providing a lifetime (unlimited production) guarantee for all qualifying Micro Mold designed and built SPI 101+ tools for the duration of the project’s production life at sister company Plastikos.
“We know of a number of the tools that Micro Mold’s built in the early-to-mid 1980s are still in production today — approximately30 years later with hundreds-of-millions of cycles on them, and counting,” notes Philip Katen, president and general manager of Plastikos.
According to Katen, the company has pursued a 100-percent “Made in the USA” strategy from its founding, and knows that strategy is a key component to its ability to afford a lifetime guarantee for its customers’ production needs.
Currently the standard SPI 101 warranty stands at 1 million cycles; the longest publicized warranty — of which the company is aware — that extends above and beyond that standard 1 million cycles is 10 years with unlimited production.
