Brett Saddoris, Technical Marketing Manager, Accumold In micro molding, it’s tempting to treat automation as something you “add later.” You make the tool, you dial in the process, you ship parts, and when volumes rise (or labor becomes a bottleneck) you start thinking about robotics, vision inspection, or packaging lines. That sequence works for many…
