From enquiry to approval

A clear 13-step injection mold manufacturing process.

One understandable sequence from part review through design, machining, trial, correction and production or tool shipment.

01

Part / CAD review

Review drawings, material, annual demand, cosmetic needs and the intended molding environment.

02

DFM & tooling concept

Define parting, gating, ejection, cooling, steel approach and key manufacturing risks.

03

Moldflow when required

Run simulation when geometry, scale, resin or production risk makes it decision-useful.

04

3D mold design

Complete core, cavity, mold base, slides, lifters, ejectors, runners and cooling layout.

05

Steel & mold base

Select and prepare mold base and steel around resin, finish, volume and tool-life requirements.

06

CNC rough machining

Remove bulk material and establish references while retaining finishing allowance.

07

Precision CNC / EDM

Finish complex surfaces, deep features, corners and details using suitable machining processes.

08

Polishing & finishing

Apply the specified surface finish and prepare texture areas when the project requires it.

09

Assembly

Fit inserts, slides, lifters, ejectors, springs, cooling lines, seals and locating components.

10

T0 / T1 trial

Set molding parameters, produce samples and document filling, ejection, appearance and stability issues.

11

Sample review

Check dimensions and visible defects, then agree correction priorities with the project team.

12

Correction & approval

Implement approved corrections and repeat trials until the agreed acceptance route is complete.

13

Production or shipment

Move into molding production or prepare the approved tool, documents and packing for shipment.
