PolyOne has been working closely with TenPoint for more than a year to identify opportunities to reduce weight, substitute materials, and improve performance and manufacturability. TenPoint® crossbows, as well as its Horton® and Wicked Ridge® crossbow product lines, incorporate PolyOne solutions from its broad portfolio of materials, including soft-touch thermoplastic elastomers, sound-dampening materials, and high-strength engineered technologies. PolyOne Corporation, with 2014 revenues of $3.8 billion, is a premier provider of specialized polymer materials, services and solutions.

This investment at our facility in Pune answers customers’ desire for a domestic supplier able to offer expertise in color, engineered materials and thermoplastic elastomers,” said Craig Nikrant, president, Specialty Engineered Materials, PolyOne. We are the only global company to offer all of these domestically produced materials in India. The company expanded manufacturing capability to include specialty engineered materials last year.

This unique material is at the heart of every product it makes. If you’d like assistance with material selection for your applications, contact us. Our team of experts has the material expertise to determine what will work best in your situation.

The new materials also provide up to 35% lower scrap rates by enhancing coating consistency, which reduces material bridging and part defects. These new materials can improve our customers’ profitability by boosting production rates and lowering total system costs.” PolyOne Corporation, with 2013 revenues of $3.8 billion, is a premier provider of specialized polymer materials, services and solutions.

Its design team determined the need for a soft-touch material with strong chemical resistance and color stability for the mouse grip.  Furthermore, the mouse’s feet required a low-wear, low friction material. The material facilitates two-shot molding, a highly efficient manufacturing process that eliminates time-consuming, high-cost assembly.

An infusion pump manufacturer saves $175,000 with a material switch The manufacturer needed an overhaul for the part – from a completely new base material to a more efficient manufacturing process. The new materials also offered quick set-up and faster cycle times, resulting in higher productivity.

That’s why the manufacturer’s technical team hoped to find a single-layer material to jacket and insulate the wire. The engineering team conferred with Avient to find a material that could meet the stringent requirements. Reduced costs: An estimated savings of $500,000 a year in production costs, primarily through reduced materials and energy costs.
