From Design To Production
Production Timeline
Timeline for a mould produced and moulded in our facility. Toolmaking and plastic moulding.
Understanding your specifications to ensure project goals , material selection , tolerances and requirements are met.
Using DFM techniques like draft analysis and plastic flow simulation ensures accurate, high-quality part moulding by identifying potential issues early in the design process.
Using CAD design tools for mould creation, we take your part and precisely model it into a mould. This design is then sent to the machine factory for accurate and efficient production.
Once the mould has been manufactured, it is taken to our state-of-the-art moulding facility for testing. The resulting samples will be delivered to you for thorough inspection and approval.
Once the samples are approved, we can move forward with scheduling an initial production run. During this phase, our focus will be on maintaining consistent quality across every shot.
To initiate a call-off order for your parts, please email us with your requirements and specifications. Our team will promptly review your request and coordinate with you to ensure timely production.
