| About Us The Ralph S. Alberts Co., Inc. is a
resourceful, multifaceted plastic job shop manufacturing tooling, molds and parts. Housed
in a facility of 37,000 square feet, our departments and capabilities include injection
molding, foam molding, hand casting, liquid resin casting and rigid/high-density flexible
foam molding.
Working with ideas, drawings, CAD
files or samples, we provide versatility in our approach to design custom molded parts for
prototyping and short run production. Our tooling, made with epoxies, urethane and
silicone, provides an excellent alternative to steel molds.
Established in 1963, our first
customers were Piper Aircraft and Gentex Corporation. Products included tooling and
fixtures for aircraft and tank helmets used by the armed services. In 1967, a corporation
was formed. RCA became a major customer as we supplied non-metallic fixtures and pallets
for conveyor lines. In 1978, a new aspect of the operation developed with the
manufacturing of replacement foam parts for amusement rides. We have developed and trade
marked a ride padding system, Ryde Hyde X 3. We service parks and ride manufacturers
throughout the United States and Europe.
We are especially proud of our
state-of-the-art processes developed by our injection-molding department. Cast epoxy
composite tools, refined through SLAs and LOMs, mold prototypes and low
production parts and allow testing and analysis of various materials. A wide variety of
industries such as computer and office equipment, O.E.M. manufacturing, electronics,
robotics, research, national defense, and medical hardware have saved time and money in
development of new products and short run needs.
Our experience with custom molding,
cost-efficiency, versatility, responsiveness, accuracy and long term durability has
enabled us to mold our niche in the plastics industry as a premier multifaceted company. |
