QMS
is the proprietary HARBEC method of supplying customers with high quality,
short- to medium-run
plastic parts of any material, and any design, in a reduced time
frame. QMS offers our customers the ability to produce cost effective,
low risk,
rapid prototypes—ranging from simple to complex.
Distinct HARBEC QMS advantages:
-
Rapid
delivery through standard processes. We
can produce parts out of your intended production materials within
several days. And we have 36 in-house CNC milling machines at your
disposal.
-
Significant
cost savings in the initial stages of production. At a fraction of the cost of a production tool, you can realize enormous
savings and eliminate the risk of incurring substantial costs
for test market
products that are never launched.
-
Quality
first-run parts suitable for rigorous testing and production. Our CNC-machined aluminum molds produce the same geometry and
dimensional accuracy as steel production tooling. With HARBEC,
you can decrease
variability, lower your risk and hit the ground running.
-
Less
stressed parts and reduced cycle times. Utilize a conformal cooling channel
that follows the exact contours of the mold cavity to provide faster
cooling. By having the cooling channels uniformly located around
the cavity, the risk of hot spots is virtually eliminated and cycle
times are reduced.
-
Tool
construction with or without tool design. Supply
HARBEC with 3D CAD data, or work with our in-house team
to develop a complex 3D product design—it’s your
choice. Our software converts digital designs into tool paths
without any
complications.
-
Real
people on hand to work with you. Reduce
the risks involved with virtual prototyping! Take advantage
of our team’s involvement in ensuring your success at no extra
charge—before it’s too late.

As you most likely know,
HARBEC was one of the first rapid injection molding firms on the Internet.
As a forerunner in this market, we began publishing our Guide for QMS
Methods in 1995 in order to share our knowledge with the industry. We
still receive numerous requests for it today.
HARBEC Plastics has researched reduced time to market methods for many
years and continues to do so to date. The experience and knowledge gained
during these years of developing and testing new tooling methods for our
own research ultimately evolved into QMS.
At HARBEC, we chose to use QMS to complement our broad offerings and make
it easier for you to do business with us. From our experience we understand
that there is not just one solution to every tooling situation. Each customer
has specific goals that must be met and the solution must be able to address
those objectives.
HARBEC Plastics is a full service plastic molder excelling in high quality
craftsmanship and customer satisfaction. With the growth of QMS and virtual
prototyping, we have kept that tradition alive while offering an expanded
range of easy-to-use solutions to meet customer needs. Our customers can
expect parts that are delivered on time with maximum value and consistent
performance. We are not afraid of tackling the hard jobs and making parts
that ordinary molders won't touch. Technical ingenuity and thinking out
of the box are the foundation for QMS.
