• Part Materials: Supports injection molding of ABS, PP, PC, PA6/PA66, POM, PEEK, glass-filled engineering resins, and elastomers.
• Surface Finishing: Available finishes from SPI A1 mirror polish to VDI 3400 texture patterns, including laser etching for logos and brand marks.
• Quality Assurance: Full CMM inspection reports, material certifications, and mold trial videos provided with every mold.

Our Custom Mold for Prototyping service includes dedicated project management, weekly progress updates with photos, and technical support from design through production ramp-up. We welcome NDA-protected discussions for proprietary projects. ISO 9001 certified with two manufacturing bases in Guangdong, China covering 200,000+ sqm.

FAQ

Question 1: What types of "special" or "unique" projects can you handle?

Answer: We excel at providing engineering solutions for applications that go beyond standard mold categories. With over 25 years of mold-making experience, we can handle complex geometries, special material requirements, and unique production challenges. Whether you need a single-cavity prototype mold, a multi-cavity production mold, or a mold customized for a specific production environment, we can provide professional solutions and support proprietary project discussions with a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA).

Question 2: What design and engineering support do you provide before manufacturing begins?

Answer: We provide comprehensive upfront support. First, we use advanced software such as CAD, CAE, Pro-E, SolidWorks, and UG for highly flexible mold design. For metal stamping die projects, we also provide complete Design for Manufacturability (DFM) analysis and mold flow simulation to optimize design and production processes before mold opening to ensure part quality and production efficiency.

Question 3: What steels and surface treatments can you use for your injection molds?

Answer: Mold cores and cavities can be made from various high-quality steels such as 718H, H13, S136, NAK80, and P20, or as specified by the customer, and are treated with appropriate heat treatment processes such as nitriding and vacuum quenching. These molds support injection molding of various materials including ABS, PP, PC, PA6/PA66, POM, PEEK, glass fiber reinforced engineering plastics, and elastomers. Surface treatments range from SPI A1 mirror polishing to VDI 3400 texture, and laser etching services are available for adding logos or branding.

Question 4: What are the key specifications and capabilities of your metal stamping dies?

Answer: Our stamping dies can be designed as single-punch dies, progressive dies (3-12 stations), or transfer dies. Core components are made of materials such as SKD11 (hardness 60-62 HRC), DC53, SKH-9, or tungsten steel, with a service life exceeding 1 million cycles and a precision tolerance of ±0.01mm. The molds can process materials from 0.1mm to 6.0mm thick, including cold-rolled steel, stainless steel, aluminum alloy, copper, and brass, and integrate in-mold tapping, embossing, relief carving, and sensor misfeed detection.

Question 5: What quality assurance measures and documents do you provide?

Answer: We implement a strict quality assurance process. Every mold or stamping die comes with a full-size coordinate measuring machine (CMM) inspection report and material certificate upon delivery, and trial mold videos are available for review. Our factory is ISO 9001 certified, and for stamping dies, in-house trial mold verification is conducted before shipment to ensure mold condition.

Question 6: How do you manage project communication? What is your production capacity?

Answer: We assign a dedicated project manager to each order, providing weekly progress updates (including photos) and full-process technical support from design to mass production, ensuring transparent and smooth communication. We have strong manufacturing capabilities, with two ISO 9001 certified production bases in Guangdong, China, covering a total area of ​​over 200,000 square meters, capable of efficiently handling projects of different sizes.
