Precision Tooling & Mold Making
Molds define the quality of everything that comes after them. Our tooling operation designs and builds the precision molds behind oral-care components — from first DFM review to first-article validation and ongoing mold maintenance — so tolerances, cavity balance and surface quality stay consistent across the production life of the product.
Tooling engineered for repeatable, high-volume quality
Oral-care parts are small, detailed and molded in high volumes — brush-head necks, handles, tufting plates and device housings. A well-built mold protects part geometry shot after shot, while a weak one creates flash, short shots and dimensional drift that are expensive to fix downstream.
We take a mold from manufacturability review through design, precision machining, assembly and first-article validation, then support it with scheduled maintenance across the program. Tooling can be commissioned on its own, or as the first stage of an integrated OEM/ODM program.
- Mold-flow analysis for shrinkage, warpage and weld-line prediction, with DFM review
- 2D/3D mold design: multi-cavity, family, two-shot and hot-runner molds; slides, lifters and undercuts
- Precision CNC, EDM and wire-EDM machining, fitting and assembly in NAK80 / S136H / 718H steels
- First-article inspection (FAI) with full dimensional reports and production handover
- Preventive maintenance, spare inserts and mold-life management to 500K–1M+ shots

From DFM to validated, production-ready mold
DFM & mold design
Part review, gate/runner and parting-line strategy, mold-flow analysis and full 2D/3D mold design.
Precision machining
Cavities, cores and inserts machined by CNC and EDM, then heat-treated and finished to spec.
Assembly & first shot
Mold fitting, assembly and trial shots; parameters tuned and first articles produced.
Validation & handover
Dimensional and cosmetic validation, sign-off, then handover to injection molding with a maintenance plan.
Built to hold tolerance — and to last
Tooling quality is verified before a mold ever reaches volume production, and tracked through its working life.
- Full first-article (FAI) dimensional & cosmetic reports against the approved drawing
- CMM and 2.5D/3D inspection to ISO 286-2 / DIN 16901; A-class surfaces verified to SPI-A1/A2
- Gate balance and cavity-to-cavity consistency checks
- Mold steel, heat treatment and surface-treatment control (NAK80 / S136H / 718H)
- Rapid DFM iterations and design-change support from sampling to production
- Documented maintenance schedule with spare critical inserts and batch traceability
