## Manufacturing Technologies

### 1. Injection Moulding of Plastic

High-volume production of plastic components using injection moulding technology.

- **Machines:** Semi- and fully automated injection moulding machines, clamping force up to 500 tons, shot volume up to 1800 cm³
- **Part weight:** up to 2000 g per part
- **Materials:** PA, PE, PP, ABS, POM, PC, and other thermoplastics
- **Automation:** Most operations semi-automatic or fully automatic
- **Service model:** Contract manufacturing to customer specifications; sub-assembly and surface finishing (vacuum metallizing, potting, CNC, ultrasonic welding) available from the same factory
- **URL:** https://vesimentor.ee/en/services-productions/injection-moulding-of-plastic

### 2. Rotational Moulding

Production of large, hollow plastic products with uniform wall thickness and seamless construction.

- **Material:** PE (polyethylene)
- **Products:** Tanks, manholes, containers, enclosures, telecom cable manholes
- **URL:** https://vesimentor.ee/en/services-productions/rotational-moulding

### 3. Vacuum Forming / Thermoforming (and Vacuum Casting)

Two related low-tooling-cost technologies for plastic parts at small to medium volumes.

- **Vacuum Forming (Thermoforming):** Heated plastic sheet (PS, PETG, ABS, PMMA, PC) is drawn over a single-sided mould by vacuum to produce large covers, housings, trays, equipment lids. Lower tooling cost than injection moulding for large parts at low-to-medium volumes.
- **Vacuum Casting:** Polyurethane resins poured into silicone moulds for prototypes and pre-series validation (typically 10–200 pieces). Bridge manufacturing before injection moulding tooling is built.
- **URL:** https://vesimentor.ee/en/services-productions/vacuum-forming

### 4. Vacuum Metallizing (PVD Chrome Effect, "Chromatieren")

Application of chrome-, gold- or copper-effect mirror finishes onto plastic substrates using a heavy-metal-free PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) process. Full in-house process: primer → metallization → protective topcoat. REACH-compliant decorative finish, no heavy metals.

- **Process:** Primer coating, vapour-deposited aluminium layer in vacuum chamber, transparent protective topcoat — all done in-house
- **Industries:** Automotive (trim, reflectors), lighting, consumer goods, cosmetics packaging, decorative parts
- **Combined with:** Injection moulding of the substrate + assembly + sealing from the same factory
- **URL:** https://vesimentor.ee/en/services-productions/chroming

### 5. CNC Machining (plastic and composite)

Precision CNC milling and cutting of plastic and composite materials.

- **Use cases:** Prototypes and pre-series before injection moulding tooling is built; post-processing of injection-moulded / rotationally-moulded parts (holes, mounting features, trimming); jigs and fixtures; engraving of logos, labels, serial numbers on plastic parts
- **URL:** https://vesimentor.ee/en/services-productions/cnc-cutting-works

### 6. Potting and FIPFG (Foam-In-Place Foam Gasket)

Two related sealing and protection technologies for electronic and mechanical assemblies.

- **Potting / Verguss:** CNC-guided filling of an enclosure with resin (epoxy, polyurethane or silicone). Protects electronics from moisture, vibration, dust and chemicals.
- **FIPFG:** CNC-guided nozzle applies a polyurethane foam bead along the edge of a part. The bead cures in place and becomes a custom-fit gasket — no pre-cut seals, no stock keeping, consistent from prototype to series.
- **Applications:** Electronics housings, control cabinets, outdoor equipment, automotive components
- **URL:** https://vesimentor.ee/en/services-productions/potting

### 7. Ultrasonic Welding

Joining of thermoplastic components using high-frequency ultrasonic vibrations.

- **Properties:** No adhesives, no fasteners — clean, strong bonds in the solid state
- **Applications:** Electronics housings, automotive interior, medical device components, consumer goods
- **URL:** https://vesimentor.ee/en/services-productions/ultrasonic-welding

### Additional Capabilities (no dedicated page)

- High-frequency welding
- Foam sealing process (FIPFG)
- Automated varnishing
- Tampo printing (pad printing)
- Manual assembly and packing

## Market Positioning

Vesimentor positions itself as a **one-stop-shop plastic manufacturer** for European B2B customers — five core manufacturing services (injection moulding, rotational moulding, vacuum metallizing, potting & FIPFG, CNC machining) plus ultrasonic welding and vacuum casting, all in one factory in Pärnu, Estonia. Key advantages:

- **Nearshoring partner** for the Nordics (Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark) and DACH (Germany, Austria, Switzerland) — shorter lead times and lower costs than Western European suppliers, higher quality and easier communication than Far East alternatives
- **One-stop-shop / Komplettfertigung / komplekstoode:** Customers save coordination, logistics and time by sourcing a whole assembly from one supplier — mould the part, metallize it, apply FIPFG sealing, CNC-machine mounting features, assemble and ship
- **EU / NATO-grade quality:** ISO 9001, ISO 14001, AQAP 2110 (NATO Quality Assurance) certifications
- **Project inquiries welcome:** Every project is different — customers are invited to send drawings, 3D models or a short description to info@vesimentor.ee, and Vesimentor evaluates whether the project fits its manufacturing capability
