With our in-house tooling, we can provide immediate feedback and fast lead time. Timely communication is executed with our design engineers in regards to any design improvements by our customers. 3D Design gives our customers a good visual acceptance of our capability and thorough detailing of Design For Manufacturing (DFM), Failure Mode & Effects Analysis (FMEA) & Mold Flow will aid selection of material, gating & cooling options to achieve maximum optimisation.
Our sustainability efforts
Sustainability in Plastic Injection Molding Process
With over 30 years of engineering expertise in plastic injection molding, our mold-flow design is specifically engineered by our team of designers to reduce runner wastage and to be energy-efficient. In turn, our customers can have the benefits of lower overhead costs, and a reliable and environmentally responsible supply chain.
We have two types of tool that caters to either “High mix, Low volume” or “Mass Manufacturing”
a. Design For Manufacturing
b. Mold Flow Analysis
c. DFMEA
d. Tooling Design
e. Prototyping adopting MUB(Mold Unit Base) for clinical trials.
f. Tooling Fabrication
Hard or Pre-hardened Tool
- Guaranteed 500k shots (Pre-hardened or Hardened Tool)
- High Precision and Tolerance
- Via CNC, EDM and Wirecut machining
- High initial tool cost, but low unit cost
It is built for extremely high production. Molding surfaces (cavities and cores) must be hardened to a minimum of 48 R/C range. All other details, such as sub-inserts, slides, heel blocks, gibs, wedge blocks, lifters, etc. will also be of hardened tool steels.
Over the life of a mold, corrosion in the cooling channels decreases cooling efficiency which can cause degradation of part quality and increase cycle time. It is therefore recommended that plates or inserts containing cooling channels is corrosive resistant or treated to prevent corrosion.
