Read MoreCONNECT Virtual Conference 2026
We are excited to share that Beaumont is sponsoring and participating in the upcoming MF Software CONNECT Virtual Conference! On June 16, from 3:30 PM to 4:15 PM, Beaumont’s own Jacob Trott will take the virtual stage to tackle one of the most critical challenges in modern plastics engineering. His presentation, “Syncing Systems: How Test Lab Parameters Translate to Simulation Performance,” will delve into bridging the gap between ideal laboratory conditions and real-world manufacturing. “Simulation …
Read MoreAchieving Accurate Material Characterization with CRIMS and STAMP Modeling
At Beaumont Advanced Processing, our solution is to provide “gold-level” material characterization by generating the CRIMS/STAMP models for use within Autodesk Moldflow Simulation Software. This goes beyond standard testing by capturing a material’s complex shrinkage behavior across a wide range of processing variables. To support this data generation, we utilize an Optical Measurement System, which measures true shrinkage on plastic parts. What the system does: The optical system will measure a grid pattern molded on …

Read MoreBeaumont Advanced Processing has received its updated cleanroom certification for 2026!
Beaumont Advanced Processing has received its updated cleanroom certification for 2026. Following a recent inspection by R. KRAFT, Inc., our facility was tested under IEST RP CC0006.3 requirements and ISO 14644-1:2015 guidelines. While the facility was designed to ISO Class 8 standards, testing confirms our Cleanroom meets the particulate requirements for ISO Class 7, enabling an easy transition to Class 7 if required. This certification verifies that we are committed to the quality standards required …
Read MoreHow to Avoid Customs Delays When Shipping Material for Characterization
If you are shipping material to Beaumont Advanced Processing from outside the United States, please take a moment to review your shipping procedures. Recent updates to international shipping regulations in 2025 are affecting how samples move across the border. Specifically, changes to the De Minimis Exemption mean that small sample packages are now facing increased scrutiny. We want to help you avoid indefinite hold-ups at customs so we can start your project on time. What …
