Preforming Pelletizing Services


The preforming process compacts loose granular, powder, or flake molding compounds into a hard, compact, solid pucks to a desired size, shape and weight.

How Can it Help You?

Customers use preforming to help with cost and efficiency in molding parts. Since each preform is pre weighed to +/- 1 gram, there is little waste when molding parts. The time it takes to scoop and weigh out each charge is also eliminated thus increasing efficiency and ease of material handling. Another benefit of preforming is providing the molder the option to preheat the molding compound. Preheating preforms can help with molding complex parts.

What Sizes & Weights?

Sizes and weights of circular preforms ranges from 3/4″ to 2-3/4″ diameter by 10 grams to 150 grams. We also have rectangular preforms sized at 3/4″ x 3″ and 1-1/2″ x 3″ with a weight range of 13 grams to 88 grams weights.
