Engineering before manufacturing

Every program starts before the first part comes off a machine

We approach manufacturing through engineering. Materials, geometry, tooling, surface requirements, production volumes and assembly constraints are worked through first, to find the most effective industrial route: not only how a part should look, but how it can be made, repeatably, at scale.

  • Design for manufacture, from concept sketch to production-ready geometry
  • Mold flow simulation before steel is cut
  • Cavitation and cooling matched to the volume
  • One point of contact for technical questions, quotation and program status

From tooling to finished production

One workflow, from mold to packed part

Product development feeds directly into mold development; molding connects to secondary processing; finishing, assembly, quality control and packing are coordinated within the same manufacturing platform. Fewer handovers between suppliers, and clearer accountability.

Geometry, material and volume reviewed with your team, from concept sketch to production-ready CAD.

Built to scale

From high-cavitation components to large structural parts

The platform spans injection molding from 160 to 1,360 tons, so different product families run on one fleet and a program can grow without being split across manufacturers.

What the range makes possible

01

Full-spectrum tonnage

160 to 1,360 tons across 30 presses, so high-cavitation small parts and large structural parts run on one platform.

02

Clear and engineering resins

Optical-clarity resins (Tritan, PCTG, acrylic) and glass-filled engineering resins (PBT+GF, POM) run on the same platform.

03

High-cavitation efficiency

Multi-cavity tooling for cost-efficient, high-volume small-part production.

04

Heavy-wall sections

Thick-section parts up to 60 mm wall, for structural and heavy-duty designs.

05

Tolerance across part classes

Repeatable tolerances on cosmetic, high-gloss consumer parts and on structural, glass-filled engineering parts.

Material and surface intelligence

Where engineering performance and perceived quality meet

For technically demanding products, how a part performs can’t be separated from how it looks. Optical clarity, colour consistency, wall thickness, surface finish, decoration and assembly all shape the result, so materials and finishing are engineered together.

A broad, tested material library

Clear and engineering resins on one platform, each with an on-file spec sheet, SDS and prior production runs.

  • ABS
  • PMMA (acrylic)
  • PP
  • PS
  • PET / rPET
  • TPE
  • TPR
  • Tritan
  • AS
  • IPET
  • MS
  • PBT + Glass Fiber
  • PC
  • PCTG
  • CPET

Recycled content

An active PCR and recycled-content program, including 30%-recycled PMMA, circular-economy traceability verification, and ongoing testing of bamboo and rPET blends.

Finishing and decoration

  • Vacuum plating / metallization
  • Laser engraving and etching
  • Hot stamping
  • Silk screen and pad printing
  • Spray painting in a fully enclosed, dust-free room
  • Ultrasonic welding

Confidence built into production

The same quality, precision and reliability, run after run

From tooling and injection to finishing, assembly and quality control, core production steps are managed within the same manufacturing platform, giving visibility and control throughout the program.

Focus sectors

Three sectors where complexity, finish and scale meet

01

Robotics & advanced hardware

Outer shells, housings and structural parts for robots and advanced hardware, where every panel of a multi-part shell has to meet its neighbour, run after run.

  • PC+ABS, PC and glass-filled engineering resins
  • Over-molding for soft-touch and multi-material parts
  • Repeatable tolerances across multi-part shells
  • Ultrasonic welding and assembly
Capabilities & examples
02

Lighting & technical components

Reflectors, lenses and housings for lighting, and technical parts with a functional or regulatory duty, where two very different surface requirements often meet on one part.

  • Aluminium vacuum metallization, two plating chambers
  • Optical-clarity PC and PMMA lenses
  • Glass-filled PBT for structural and safety parts
  • Tight tolerances on cosmetic and structural parts
Capabilities & examples
03

Premium consumer products, drinkware & home hardware

Drinkware, appliance housings and home hardware, where optical clarity, finish quality and food-contact compliance define the part, at retail volumes.

  • Optical-clarity Tritan, PCTG and acrylic
  • High-cavitation tooling for volume
  • BPA-free and EU food-contact material testing
  • Decoration and retail-ready packing

FAQ

DAPY Industries, answered

What is DAPY Industries?

DAPY Industries is DAPY’s dedicated, engineering-led manufacturing activity for OEM and technical applications. It is your single accountable interface for engineering, program coordination, quality, logistics and delivery, with production carried out through an integrated manufacturing platform in Tainan, Taiwan.

Who do I sign the contract with?

Contracts are signed with DAPY’s French company (DO SAS) or its US company (DAPY USA), depending on where you are based and where the parts are delivered. Either way, DAPY Industries remains your single point of contact.

What injection molding tonnage range is available?

Thirty injection presses from 160 to 1,360 tons. That covers high-cavitation tooling for small parts through to large-format structural and OEM components, so a full part portfolio can stay in one program.

Are molds built on the same platform?

Yes. Mold design, CNC machining, EDM, mold flow simulation, trial and fit-up, and ongoing maintenance are managed within the same manufacturing platform as molding, so tooling changes stay with the team that runs production.

Which plastics and resins can be molded?

The tested material library includes ABS, PC, PC+ABS, PP, PS, PMMA (acrylic), PET and rPET, CPET, IPET, AS, MS, TPE, TPR, Tritan, PCTG and glass-filled PBT. Optical-clarity resins and glass-filled engineering resins run on the same platform.

What finishing and decoration is available?

Vacuum metallization and plating, laser engraving and etching, hot stamping, silk screen and pad printing, spray painting in an enclosed dust-free room, and ultrasonic welding, alongside five assembly lines.

Which certifications apply?

The manufacturing platform in Tainan holds ISO 9001 (quality), ISO 14001 (environmental) and ISO 45001 (health and safety), all valid until 2028. Social-compliance, security and material-testing processes, including BPA-free and EU food-contact material testing.

Can an existing tool be transferred?

Yes. Tool transfers are a standard program type. Send the tool drawings and last-run parameters with your brief and we will come back on condition, re-qualification and a route back into production.

Which industries do you focus on?

Three sectors: robotics and advanced hardware; lighting and technical components; and premium consumer products, drinkware and home hardware.

Send us a part. We’ll come back with a route to production.
