Right-Sized Production Runs: Flexibility Without the Waste

Right-Sized Production Runs: Flexibility Without theWaste

In extrusion manufacturing, order size often becomes abarrier. Many large companies only accept massive, ongoing production runs,leaving OEMs with more inventory than they need. At Lincoln Plastics, we offera smarter alternative: right-sized production runs that balanceefficiency with flexibility.

The Tooling Investment

Everycustom extrusion starts with tooling — and that investment is the same whetheryou plan to run a short order or a large one. That’s why we don’t focus on“prototyping” or tiny test runs. Instead, once a production-level tool isbuilt, Lincoln Plastics provides the flexibility to run smaller,right-sized batches compared to what big extrusion houses demand.

Our Flexibility Advantage

We’vebuilt our process around balancing efficiency with customer needs. While wegenerally require a 10-hour minimum run to ensure set-up and productionefficiency, this is still far more flexible than most extrusion companies,which may require continuous, large-scale orders. And depending on theopportunity, we can adapt outside that parameter.

Whatthis means for you: - Right-sized orders that align with actual demand -Less wasted inventory compared to oversized runs at larger suppliers - Customspecs for wall thicknesses, diameters, colors, and profiles - Consistentquality with the personal support of our Nebraska-based team
