Injection Molding From Mould Review to Production

What this page covers

• Thermoplastic injection moulding for consumer and industrial parts
• Liquid silicone rubber moulding, described as suited to medical and food-grade applications
• Metal injection moulding for small, complex metal parts in larger runs
• Mould design review, design-for-manufacturing feedback, material choice, mould making, trial moulding and production

What to confirm before ordering

Moulds are developed to the SPI standard described on the source pages, from prototype moulds to production moulds, including two-plate and hot-runner designs. Production mould timing is confirmed after the design review and mould assessment, not fixed in advance. Before ordering, confirm minimum order quantity and lead time for your drawings.

Drawing checklist

Send the drawing with units and scale stated, the material and grade, the critical dimensions and tolerances marked, and the finish required. State the quantity you need checked and the question the part must answer: fit, function or appearance. Uploaded files are used only for the quotation, and non-disclosure agreements are supported.

Quality checks

Parts are inspected with a coordinate measuring machine, a projector and height gauges, with quality control at each production stage, and a dimension report can be provided for a project on request.
