OEMs Opt to Eliminate In-House Lamination Operations
For OEMs that apply laminate films to metal parts or apply coatings to as decorative finishes, the in-house manufacturing process requires a significant investment in equipment, plant floor space and ongoing maintenance for what can be a very temperamental process.
Not only that, but failure to precisely control what can be a very temperamental process can lead to laminates that do no bond properly or wrinkle, leading to excessively high scrap rates and even product returns.
