(NVision: Coppell, TX) -- The Mississippi Polymer Institute (MPI) helps smaller companies in the polymer industry succeed by using an NVision MobileScan laser scanning system to reengineer or inspect parts to a high level of accuracy. “By inspecting first articles, we help injection molders ensure that their first article matches the design intent,” says Bryan Brister of MPI. “We also reengineer tools and parts to create a CAD file that can be used to reproduce the object or modify its design.”

A resource for polymer-related industries in Mississippi, the MPI shares its expertise in the sciences, computer applications, product design, and manufacturing of polymer materials. It is associated with the School for Polymers and High Performance Materials at the University of Southern Mississippi, recognized as one of the top 10 Polymer Science Programs in the United States by U.S. News and World Report.
