00:00:06 Acumold began in 1985 with the idea that there had to be a better way to produce smaller and smaller molded plastic parts more efficiently and of higher quality than what was currently available in the industry. Back in the mid 80s when products like cell phones had just come to market, what we know today as micro electronics was just beginning. From this vision, Acumold invented the very
00:00:29 first micro molding machine. This technology was the first of its kind dedicated to molding extremely small, high precision plastic components. As the demand for miniaturization of electronics grew, so did Acumold. Over the years, we've worked with some of the most incredible industryleading companies around the world. We've created micro electronics components for
00:00:52 extremely small devices and sensors. We've created medical components for life-saving implantable and surgical technology like eye surgery, hearing aids, pacemakers, and drug delivery. We've created small optical components for high precision packages like telecommunication devices, fiber optics, and medical diagnostic tools. And we've created components that help the
00:01:16 automotive industry integrate more advanced technologies into their vehicles. Our work helps our customers build the next generation of high-tech devices and we get to be with them on the cutting edge. To support the demand over the years, Acumold has moved and expanded several times since our humble beginnings in our founders's garage. We
00:01:35 were in a rented facility on the other side of Ankeny in the early years. In the late '9s, we bought the land we are currently on. And in 2001, we opened our own dedicated factory. Since then, we've expanded our building a couple of times to the state-of-the-art facilities you see today. Acumold does business all over the world, shipping daily to companies near and far, and we aren't
00:01:59 showing any signs of slowing down.
