Manufacturing Services

CAD/CAM CNC Routing

• State-of-the-art computer system allows us to design and manufacture products with exact precision.

Slitting/Skiving

• Razor-sharp blades convert foam sheets to the exact depth required for your needs.

Compression Cutting/Theroforming

• Produces unique forms using pressurized cuts made over templates.
• Creates smooth, three-dimensional contours and allows multiple templates to be used at one time.
• Bypasses traditional die-cutting and laminating, thus creating the finished product with a single technique.

Convoluting

• Convoluted-cut is an ideal choice for protecting and cushioning delicate items. The peaks and valleys surround each item evenly
• Can also be used for furniture, bedding, music studios and other area here noise reduction is required.

Hot-Wire Cutting

• Capable of cutting multiple sheets per hour (depending on density of the foam, and our band saw cut your sheets to the precise widths you require).

Coring

• Coring is the process of removing a cylindrical piece of material using a special drill.
• Ideal for packaging and storage products.

Precision Contour Cutting

• Our Baumer horizontal contour cutting machine with oscillating knife is ideal for creating technical parts that require extreme accuracy and for processing materials with high volume weights.

Foam Tubing Manufacturing

• Created from foam sleeves, Hibco can vary wall thickness to meet your needs, so you only pay for the foam you use.
• Our extruder is capable of producing various sizes of inner and outer diameters.

Waterjet Cutting

• Precision cutting for the densest of foams up to 4″ thick.
• Produces minimal waste.
• Depending on the project, you may realize greater savings as there is less manual labor involved versus custom die development and production.

Die-Cut Press

• Our die-cutting press converts polyether foam, polyester foam, Ethafoam®, Volara®, cellulose foam, etc. into precisely cut pieces.

Hotplate Joining

• An important part of the Hibco service offering is creating one finished product that is comprised of different parts. Our Smart Foam Hotplate is the tool that lets us do that.
• Ideal for PE, EPE, PP, XLPE, and EVA foams.

Recycling

• Recycling is extremely important to us, and we take several steps to ensure our environmental footprint is as small as possible.
• We recycle and repurpose what we can as often as possible, so we can reduce the amount of new materials we purchase.
• Recycling allows us to reduce our overall costs, and we pass the savings to you.
• We have been reprocessing our own linear polyethylene scrap in-house for 35 years.

Sleeve Cutting

• Available for our products, or foam you provide.
• Perfect for military, boat manufacturing, automotive, and robotics applications.

Slitting/Splitting

• Perfect for cutting sheets or rolls of material down to the thickness you need.
• Our precision Feken-Kirfel machines can cut to a broad range of thicknesses.

Custom Package Design Services

• Our engineers and designers can customize to protect your products while conserving resources. Regardless of your specifications or time schedule, we have the capability to meet your needs.
• We can also provide you with an audit of the materials you are currently using. Throughout the package testing process, we will subject the packages to common stresses found in the field and offer recommendations.
• Whether you will be storing or transporting your packages for long periods of time, our tests will ensure we provide you with something that will meet your needs and expectations.
