Purchase Adds Industry-Leading Micro Molding Technology and Hot Runner Capabilities

Georgetown, ON – Westfall Technik Inc. has acquired Mold Hotrunner Solutions Inc. (“MHS”), a leading supplier of high-performance melt delivery systems for the global injection molding industry.

The addition of MHS further strengthens the comprehensive manufacturing capabilities being assembled across the fast-growing Westfall portfolio. Westfall Technik’s strategy is to combine core competencies across an international group of companies in order to provide highly efficient, highly productive manufacturing solutions to serve the medical, packaging, and consumer goods market spaces.

MHS specializes in valve gate hot runner technology for precision plastic parts, with applications ranging from extremely small parts the size of a salt grain to shot weights of 400 lbs and more. The company distinguishes itself with best-in-class engineering support for molders and mold makers and its ability to innovate through continuous research and development.

Recently, MHS introduced a new line of injection molding machines that revolutionize the way micro-sized plastic parts are manufactured. The M3 series features patented technology to manufacture these parts without scrap, dramatically reducing the cost of medical device production when utilizing expensive resins. This technology gives Westfall a considerable competitive advantage over other contract manufacturers of medical devices and high-volume precision parts.
