How We Can Help
We fully understand the impact of tolerance management on your product assembly process and ensure that the service we provide is of the highest standard.
Are able to validate tools in-house using our 3D co-ordinate measuring machine.
In-House Mold Making Design
Our plastic injection mold making engineers have a full checklist they utilize for every tool design and tool build. We are able to manufacture P20 or H13 steel tools at 1/3 to 1/2 the cost of aluminum tools in the other countries.
Therefore, in an effort to better serve our customers and deliver a better product we have begun to exclusively build steel tools in global. Utilizing a more efficient system it allows us to manufacture a steel tool in the same timeframe as an aluminum tool, while providing a better finished product at a lower cost.

What Is The Process Of Making Molds
The process of making a mold involves several steps, and the specific process can vary depending on the type of mold being made. Here is a general outline of the process:
- Designing the Mold: The first step in the mold-making process is designing the mold. This involves creating a 3D model of the object to be molded, which can be done using computer-aided design (CAD) software[1].
- Choosing the Mold Material: The material used for the mold depends on the object being molded and the molding process. Common materials include metals, plastics, ceramics, and wood.
- Creating the Mold: There are several methods for creating the mold, including standard machining (CNC) and Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM). The method chosen depends on the complexity of the mold and the material being used.
- Mold Making Techniques: There are several techniques for making molds, including the pour block mold method, the press mold method, and the brush-on mold method. The technique chosen depends on the complexity of the object being molded and the material being used.
- Preparing the Mold: Once the mold is created, it needs to be prepared for the molding process. This can involve applying a release agent to make it easier to remove the finished product from the mold.
- Casting: The final step in the mold-making process is casting, where the material to be molded is poured into the mold and allowed to solidify.
