LPMS USA – Low Pressure Molding Solutions
LPMS USA is a leading provider of low pressure molding (LPM) solutions, specializing in equipment, tooling, contract manufacturing, and services from design to production. The company was founded to meet the demand for electronics encapsulation in industries such as automotive, medical, marine, and consumer electronics.
Benefits of Low Pressure Molding Over Potting
- Faster Processing: LPM reduces production steps compared to traditional potting.
- Cost Savings: Reduces material, labor, and shipping costs—overmolded parts can be 50% cheaper than potted parts.
- Eco-friendly Materials: Uses thermoplastics derived from plant-based fatty acids (VOC-free, RoHS/REACH compliant).
- Waterproofing & Protection: Encapsulates electronics in seconds, providing moisture, chemical, shock, and vibration resistance.
- Customization: LPMS offers custom materials, embossing, multiple material overmolding, and integrated mounting solutions.
Low Pressure Molding Equipment
LPMS USA provides horizontal, vertical, semi-automated, and handheld injection molding machines.
Horizontal Injection Machines (e.g., BETA 300, KAPPA 1000H)

- Clamping force: 1.2 to 5 tons.
- Safety features: Light curtains, e-stop buttons, safety doors.
Vertical Injection Machines (e.g., BETA 800H, BETA 800HMG)
- Improved wet-out adhesion, faster cycle times, and lower material waste.
- Clamping force: 1.2 to 5 tons.
- Melt tank options: Built-in or external.
Semi-automated & Handheld Equipment (e.g., BETA 370, ALPHA 100)
- Semi-automated systems for high-volume production.
- Handheld devices for low-volume and prototyping.
- Clamping force: 1.2 to 2 tons.
