How a DFM review reduces mold rework

Most of the cost of a tooling problem is decided before the first cut. Once a cavity has been machined, correcting draft, wall thickness or gate position means welding, re-machining or replacing an insert.

What a design review looks at

Part geometry, draft angles, wall-thickness transitions, gate and runner layout, ejection, cooling layout and the expected molding window are examined together rather than one at a time.

Why it is done on paper

A change to a drawing costs a conversation. The same change after hardening costs a new insert and a delay to the whole programme.

What to send us

Part drawings or 3D data, the resin you intend to run, and your annual volume. From that we can review the tool concept before committing to steel.

Specific tolerance and cycle-time figures are pending confirmation from the factory.
