Injection moulds

Injection mould design is the main area of our activity.

Our main objective while designing injection moulds is the quality of the part obtained from our tool.
In case of projects we participate in, the first step is to analyse the geometry in order to adapt it to the requirements of the injection moulding process. Although often omitted by other companies, this is one of the most important stages during the preparation for the tool design. It is crucial for obtaining parts with correct geometry, without manufactring defects. It also enables the subsequent achievement of repeatable part dimensions and stable parameters of the production process. This work is carried out in close cooperation with the part’s designer, in order to assure that our modifications do not affect the functionality of the part.

Before and during design works we utlize the advantages related to computer simulation of injection process and phenomena taking place in the moulding cavity (Moldex3D). CAE analysis allows to detect potential problems regarding the processing before the physical tool manufacturing. This reduces the costs associated with multiple, expensive adjustments and test cycles, as well as helps to achieve maximal productivity. Areas of reduced durability or reduced aesthetic values can be identified and, by selecting the appropriate location of injection points or mould temperature control, reduced or conpletely removed. For complicated parts, where obtaining the correct geometry is not possible due to the material specification or the shape that does not meet technological requirements is needed, we are able to develop sockets and forming cores with a counter-shape that will allow to produce parts with the correct geometry after the material’s stabilisation period.

Due experience in the plastics processing industry, we have acquired many guidelines for the design of tools that are economical to build and easy to maintain. We strive to ensure that our moulds have the shortest possible set-up times and are as error-free as possible when changing moulding parts or connecting external accessories.

We also take care that the documentation we provide corresponds with the actually manufactured tool. All modifications and corrections introduced during the production process are implemented in the models and 2D drawings. As a result, there are no problems with manufacturing replacement parts during future tool reconditioning. It is also possible to quickly build a duplicate mould.

We design moulds of this type for companies in the industry:

  • Motor industry;
  • Furniture
  • Furniture;
  • Medical;
  • Electrotechnical;
  • Food industry;
  • Vegetable
  • Armaments;
  • Production;
  • Lighting;

WORKPIECE PARAMETERS OPTIMISATION

Tool adjustment

Goal:
Reduce part weight and optimize production efficiency by modifying a HP die cast mold for aluminium (designed and manufactured by a competitive company)
Actions:
Relieving the weight of a workpiece by introducing ribbing, wall thickness correction in non-visible areas, applying industrial design to visible areas.
Result:
Part weight reduced by 30%
Production cycle time reduced by 20%
