Customers Who Trust ZIPPS

“ZIPPS has assisted me in successfully implementing cavity pressure here at Smiths Medical. We started with a simple three gang body plate which was outfitted with sensors years ago but never utilized. With this mold we were able to prove with data to my management team the part weight savings, cycle time savings, and part containment abilities of cavity pressure and scientific molding.”

James Lipps • Senior Plastics Engineer • Smiths Medical

“ZIPPS work on MPC’s molding optimization yielded substantial cost reductions from decreased cycle time and reduced part weights throughout various jobs in the plant.”

Marty Bondar • Plant Engineering Supervisor • MPC Inc.

“When our training was complete with ZIPPS, we were able to reduce part weight and decrease cycle time with the Decoupled 3 molding technique with approximately $750,000 in total savings on two individual tools. We currently have over 180 tools in house with 45 more on the way, there is no telling how much money could be saved on just reducing part weight alone.”

Jeff Clayburn • Process Manager • Plastech

“I have worked closely with Mike and his staff on DOEs which has shown to be extremely beneficial in identifying and solving quality issues while improving productivity. Other benefits included cycle time savings, scrap reductions, tooling modifications, and improved machine utilization. They have always responded quickly to our needs and have been extremely professional to work with. I’ve had excellent support from ZIPPS.”

Agustin Zarate • Purchasing/SQE • FCA

“Smiths Medical has been using ZIPPS for an array of services since 2006. They crafted a specialized schedule and technical training plan unique to my process technician needs based on staff knowledge, product, machine types, materials used, etc. The training was executed over a 7-week period and showed results immediately.”

James Lipps • Senior Plastics Engineer • Smiths Medical

“The training ZIPPS has provided has been a positive and rewarding experience for each person involved, regardless of position. Other benefits included cycle time savings, scrap reductions, tooling modifications and improved material utilization.”

Cindy Forbes • Operations & Continuous Improvement Manager • Lear Corporation

“ZIPPS teams’ proactive approach to Scientific Injection Molding and overall knowledge of manufacturing, processing, and various plastic materials, along with tool performance & testing has enabled us to reduce cycle times, part weights, and increase through-put efficiencies while improving overall part quality.”

Noel Somasundram • Sr. Quality Director • IAC Group

“I would recommend ZIPPS for any molding company, they are very knowledgeable and are hands on individuals who can apply what they teach and not just talk.”

Jeff Clayburn • Process Manager • Plastech

Noel Somasundram • Sr. Quality Director • IAC Group

“I have been in the automotive Quality Profession for 48 years and have met a few professionals in my time. Mike Zalipski is a true example of that. He is an expert scientific injection molding guru. His analytical abilities are top shelf, you won’t find anyone better. Mike and I have worked on several projects together, mostly under duress. He always shows up with energy, knowledge, and relentless drive to succeed. I would be proud to work with Mike Zalipski on any future projects.”

Robin McCormick • BMW QMT, Plant Spartanburg, SC

“Working with ZIPPS has truly been an investment in our company that has paid us back huge dividends.
