Tooling and injection molding
Injection molded parts, from the first tool to the millionth shot
A plastics molder with its own tool room: we design and cut the mold, sample it, and run production on presses from small to large, in commodity and engineering resins, with the quality records to match.

FROM PART TO PRODUCTION
How a molded part gets made here
1. Design for molding
We review draft, wall thickness, gating and undercuts and suggest changes that make the part cheaper to mold.
2. The tool
Designed, cut and sampled in our own tool room, prototype aluminum or production steel.
3. Sampling
First shots measured against the print and sent to you for approval.
4. Production
Run to a documented process window with inline checks, packed to your spec.
Changes in days, not months
Most molding problems are tooling problems. Our tool room designs, cuts and maintains the molds we run, so a gate, a vent or a cooling line can be changed the same week rather than shipped across the world and back. The presses sit a short walk from the toolmakers.
- Gates, vents and cooling adjusted in house
- Toolmakers a short walk from the presses
- Tools stored and maintained here
Repeatable production
Production runs on a floor of presses with robots for part removal and inline checks on weight and dimension. We keep the tool, the setup sheet and the process window on file, so a repeat order runs the way the last one did.
- Setup sheet per tool
- Process window on file
- Inline weight and dimension checks

FROM CUSTOMERS
What product companies say
A short quote from a happy client belongs here. Two or three sentences is usually enough to make the point without losing the reader.
Replace this with something a real customer said. Specific praise reads better than a general compliment, so keep whatever detail they gave you.
Testimonials work best when they name the problem that was solved. Leave the wording as close to how it was said as you can.
