Tooling & Engineering

Precision molds engineered and machined in-house — the foundation of consistent, high-quality silicone production.

In-House Capability

Full Tooling Under One Roof

Our tooling workshop combines high-speed CNC machining, mirror EDM and precision finishing to build molds that hold tight tolerances and deliver long service life.

  • High-speed CNC — precision-machined mold cavities at ±0.01 mm
  • Mirror EDM — fine details, sharp corners and polished finishes
  • Cold-runner LSR tooling — prevents runner waste and premature cure
  • Long-life molds — premium steel and lifetime maintenance

Our Process

From CAD to Finished Mold

1

Mold Design

Engineers design the mold layout, gating, venting and parting line from your approved 3D model.

2

CNC & EDM Machining

Cavities are precision-machined and spark-eroded to exact dimensions.

3

Polishing & Assembly

Surfaces are polished and the mold assembled with ejector and cooling systems.

4

First-Shot Trial

Sample parts are molded, measured and approved before production begins.

Precision Specifications

Measurable Accuracy, Proven Steel

We build molds from premium tool steels and hold tolerances that keep your production consistent run after run.

SpecificationCapability
Mold cavity tolerance±0.01 mm on critical dimensions
Injection precision±0.1% shot-weight repeatability on LSR / compression lines
Color matchingΔE ≤ 1.5 against Pantone / RAL references
Mold steel gradesP20, NAK80, S136 (and hardened H13 for high-volume runs)
Cavity finishMirror polish to SPI A1 / A2 where specified

P20

Cost-effective pre-hardened steel for standard short-to-mid-run molds.

NAK80

High-polish pre-hardened steel for glossy, cosmetic and transparent parts.

S136

Stainless mold steel for medical, food-contact and high-corrosion-resistance needs.
