Standard Packaging

Each batch of LCP injection molded parts is carefully counted and packed in anti-static PE bags to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage, especially critical for electronic components. Parts are then placed in custom-designed compartment trays or vacuum-formed blister trays to avoid part-to-part friction, scratching, or deformation during transit. Tray stacks are secured within reinforced export cartons with foam padding or bubble wrap for added cushioning. For high-volume orders, multiple cartons are strapped onto fumigated wooden pallets and stretch-wrapped with protective film, ensuring stability and safety during container loading.

Shipping

We support FCL and LCL sea freight, air freight, and express delivery, depending on order quantity and destination. Available trade terms include EXW, FOB, CIF, and others upon request. Shipping costs are calculated based on cargo volume, gross weight, destination, and selected transportation method. For urgent or prototype orders, we also offer expedited courier services (e.g., DHL, FedEx, UPS) with real-time tracking.

Lead Time

Samples : 5 – 10 working days

Standard orders: 10 – 15 working days

Custom orders : 25 – 40 working days (including mold trial and first article inspection)

Q1: What is the difference between LCP and other high-temperature engineering plastics like PEEK or PPS?

A: LCP offers superior dimensional stability and flowability compared to PEEK and PPS, making it ideal for thin-wall, precision molding. While PEEK excels in continuous high-temperature mechanical load, LCP outperforms in high-frequency electrical properties and creep resistance under constant stress. PPS is more cost-effective but lacks LCP's extreme precision and dielectric performance at high frequencies.

Q2: How long does sample preparation take? What information do you need for a custom quotation?

A: Sample preparation typically takes 5–10 working days, depending on mold availability and material grade. For a custom quotation, we need the following information: 3D drawing or 2D dimensioned print, target tolerances, quantity, resin grade, and color requirement. Custom mold development may add 4–6 weeks.

Q3: What is the MOQ and production lead time?

A: Minimum order quantity (MOQ) is 1,000 pieces per order for standard existing molds. For custom-molded parts requiring new tooling, MOQ is negotiable based on project scale. Production lead time is 10–15 working days for existing molds and 25–40 working days for new mold development and first article approval.

Q4:  What factors should I consider when choosing LCP grade for electronic connectors?

A: For electronic connector applications, consider the following: pitch size (finer pitch requires higher flowability), operating temperature (reflow soldering compatibility), dielectric constant (for high-speed signal transmission), and warpage control (glass-fiber content helps reduce anisotropic shrinkage). We recommend lower-glass or unfilled grades for ultra-thin walls and higher-glass grades for load-bearing structural connectors.

Q5: What quality standards and certifications does the product meet?

A: Our LCP injection molded parts are manufactured in compliance with ISO 9001 and IATF 16949 for automotive applications. They meet UL 94 V-0 flammability standards, RoHS, and REACH environmental regulations. For electronics, we also comply with IPC-6012 and JEDEC moisture sensitivity level (MSL) requirements. Full inspection reports, including dimensional, mechanical, and thermal performance data, can be provided upon request.

Q6: Can LCP parts be recycled or reground?

A: LCP is a thermoplastic and can be reprocessed; however, due to its unique oriented molecular structure, regrind usage is typically limited to 10–20% of the total material to maintain consistent mechanical and thermal properties. We recommend using virgin resin for critical high-precision or high-temperature applications, though regrind may be acceptable for non-critical internal components.
