September 29, 2004
Wentworth Mold Inc. and Plastic Technologies Inc. Form Strategic Alliance
to Expand Fast-to-Market® Mold Program
Wentworth Mold, Inc. (Hamilton, ON), a member of the Packaging Mold
Group of Wentworth Technologies Co. Ltd, is pleased to announce that it has
entered into an alliance with Plastic Technologies, Inc. (Holland, OH) wherein
PTI will expand its use of Wentworth’s Fast To Market® blow mold program to
additional blow molding machines in its U.S. facility and at its European
subsidiary, PTI-Europe (Yverdon, Switzerland). Wentworth will provide to PTI
additional FTM® mold carriers and Wentworth will produce prototype FTM® molds
for PTI at both its Hamilton, ON and its Nottinghamshire, UK site. In addition,
as a strategic partner, PTI will have full access to Wentworth’s real time,
on-line job quoting service (to be launched shortly), so that PTI can reduce
the time spent in the initial quotation phase of a project, thus reducing the
total package development time for its customers.
Wentworth will utilize PTI’s extensive prototyping capabilities on
both continents to test prototype and lead cavity molds it makes, in order to
better serve its customers’ needs.
PTI recently completed an extensive package development project for
one of its key customers where Wentworth supplied eight FTM® blow molds to PTI
with the average delivery time per mold of four days, from the receipt of the
3D CAD files from PTI. One goal of the alliance is to reduce the mold delivery
time even further by streamlining the file transfer and mold engineering and
manufacturing processes.
The Packaging Mold Group consists of Wentworth Mold Inc., Electra
Form Industries Inc. and Jersey Mold Inc., and is a division of Wentworth
Technologies Co. Ltd., the # 1 independent manufacturer and global leader in
mold-making and related plastics processing to the packaging industry. The
Wentworth Packaging Mold Group supplies PET Preform Injection Molds from single
cavity FTM® stacks to 144 cavity Micropitch production molds and Blow Mold
Tooling for all types of machines for PET, EBM, IBM and ISBM. Wentworth
Technologies is recognized as the Best Value Supplier in its niche markets.
