Rapid aluminium tooling for prototype runs through to production-grade hardened steel tools. Engineering thermoplastics, over-moulding and insert moulding — from 100 parts to 1,000,000.
Most product teams don't need a million-shot tool on day one. We build aluminium and P20 prototype tools in 2–4 weeks for design validation and pilot runs of a few hundred parts, then graduate to fully hardened H13 production tooling once the design is locked.
That tiered approach saves you 50–70% on first tooling spend versus going straight to a production mould — and lets you find issues before they get expensive.
Prototype aluminium tools in 2–4 weeks. Production steel tools in 4–8 weeks depending on cavity count.
Tonnage from 50T to 1200T. Shot weights from a few grams to 3 kg.
±0.05 mm typical, tighter on critical features. Industry-standard DIN 16742 tolerance bands.
Aluminium tools rated for 5,000–50,000 shots. Hardened steel tools for 500,000+ shots with maintenance.
Single-cavity prototypes through to 32+ cavity production tools with hot-runner systems.
Insert moulding, over-moulding (TPE on rigid), gas-assist, family tools and two-shot moulding.
ABS, PP, PE, PS, HIPS — for housings, lids, packaging and consumer products.
Nylon (PA6, PA66), POM (acetal), polycarbonate, PBT — for gears, structural and load-bearing parts.
PEEK, PEI (ULTEM), PPS — for medical, aerospace and high-temperature applications.
TPE, TPU, silicone (LSR) — for grips, seals, gaskets and over-moulded soft-touch surfaces.
30% glass-filled nylon, carbon-filled PEEK and other reinforced grades for stiffness and dimensional stability.
USP Class VI compliant materials for medical and biotech applications, with full traceability.
