Interplex Junction - The Place to Connect

Traditionally, high-volume low-mix production has been considered the best way to achieve optimal efficiency and quality. However, for many manufacturers in the United States, meeting customer requirements mean dealing with high-variation/low-volume environments.

High-mix approaches can offer advantages such as, better tailoring to specific customer demand, improved responsiveness to changing market demands and lower finished goods inventories. However, high-mix has traditionally been less efficient because of the inherent variations.

Some of the key challenges of high-mix production include:

• Dealing with more frequent changeover of production set-ups
• Maintaining high quality levels across a mix of configurations
• Potentially more complex logistics for managing piece-part inventories

A key to success with high-mix environments is to minimize these inherent downsides by leveraging configurable interconnect technologies in order to maximize the benefits of being able to offer a wider range of options from within the same production environment.

Interplex Industries is now an Amtek Engineering Company.

With the recent completion of Amtek's acquisition of Interplex, the combination of the businesses creates a truly global precision engineering company that offers some of the most comprehensive and integrated precision engineering solutions in the industry. With the enlarged geographic footprint and expanded product and services offering, we are even better positioned to serve our customers' evolving needs.

Traditionally, Interplex has provided small precision metal and plastic components, including proprietary press-fit interconnects and solder-bearing lead technology. Teamed with Amtek, we can now offer a complete metal and plastic solution -- the stamping, molding and assembly of both smaller precision components and larger precision assemblies, such as metal enclosures for racks and servers and printers.

Since our founding in 1958, Interplex Industries has grown into a diverse global company for one primary reason:  We listen to customers and focus on solving their design and production challenges.

From the operator on the manufacturing floor, to the tool maker in the tool room, to the engineer at the CAD station, we offer the expertise and knowledge to develop, engineer and manufacture complex parts and assemblies. That expertise continues to grow as we add new technologies, products, and services to solve new customer problems and provide innovative capabilities. 

Solving your problems continually makes us a better company.

If you're a hands-on engineer, materials specifier or program manager who needs access to a wide range of standards-based and custom technology alternatives to help solve precision mechanical and interconnect challenges, you've come to the right place.
