i.r.p. Engineering Plastics

irp engineering plastics cc was founded in 1987. we recognised the opportunity and real need for local manufacturing of plastic conveyor components used by the food, beverage and packaging industries, which had been previously sourced from europe and america. the manufacturing facility has continually developed over the years and now consists of injection moulding with presses ranging from 90 to 350 ton capacities, producing components such as flat top and crate conveyor chain links, sprockets, guide rail systems and more than 2000 conveyor components. the cnc machining division dedicated to producing custom made parts required by the industry, now comprises, cnc lathes, machining centres, cnc vacuum bed routers complete with 4th axes capabilities, all of which are linked to a sophisticated autocad cnc programming system. the technical design centre which programmes all the cnc machinery, also has at its disposal, a cimcore ii portable measuring arm, enabling irp to locally produce
