Foam Tooling
CAD facilities
We can read all formats of CAD
data including IGES, DXF, Catia etc...
Rapid Tooling
Low cost rapid urethane tooling manufactured from CAD data
supplied. This process is often used in the place of milled foam
parts for development and prototypes, the advantage against
milled samples includes the fact that the mould tool can produce
multiple parts, can be easily modified and that mouldings can be
produced to the correct hardness including (if required)
inserts.
Aluminium Billet Tools
Aluminium billet tooling, CNC machined to CAD data.
Benefits against cast tooling
- Greater accuracy
- No model or pattern
required
- Shorter lead-time
- Lower cost
- No sand inclusions
- No porosity
- Easy to modify
- Good surface finish
- Accurate machined joint
lines (less flash)
- Good thermal conductivity
- More even heat
distribution
Resin Tooling
GRP resin tooling for low
volume or prototypes
Cast Aluminum tooling
For higher volume parts with cast in stainless steel pipe work for
heating.
