Mold Development & Manufacturing
Based on 20 years of automotive industry experience, providing professional insights and resource connections throughout the entire process from design review to mass production maintenance
Specialized Mold Types
Injection Molds
Specializing in injection molds for automotive interior and exterior plastic parts, including development and manufacturing management of large complex molds for instrument panels, door panels, bumpers, etc.
Stamping Molds
Covering stamping molds for body structural parts and covers, including progressive dies, transfer dies, etc., with emphasis on mold lifespan and production stability.
Die-casting Molds
Focusing on aluminum alloy and magnesium alloy die-casting molds, involving mold design for engine components, transmission housings and other parts in high-temperature, high-pressure environments.
Mold Development Key Processes
Design Review & Optimization
Participating in mold DFM analysis, providing optimization suggestions from manufacturability, cost, and lifespan perspectives to avoid later-stage changes.
Supplier Evaluation & Selection
Comprehensive evaluation of mold suppliers based on equipment capabilities, technical teams, past cases, quality systems, and other dimensions.
Cost Analysis & Negotiation
Breaking down mold cost structure (materials, processing, design, trial molding, profit, etc.) to ensure reasonable pricing.
Schedule & Quality Management
Monitoring key milestones (design completion, material procurement, rough machining, finish machining, trial molding) to ensure timely and quality delivery.
Trial Molding Acceptance & Optimization
Participating in trial molding processes, evaluating mold stability, molding cycle times, part quality, and proposing improvement solutions.
Key Considerations for Mold Development
Mold Lifecycle Management
Selecting appropriate mold steel and surface treatment processes based on expected production volume, balancing initial investment with long-term maintenance costs.
Standardization & Modularization
Promoting the application of standard mold bases and standard components to reduce manufacturing difficulty, shorten lead times, and facilitate maintenance.
Cooling System Optimization
Proper design of cooling channels to shorten molding cycles, improve production efficiency, and ensure stable product quality.
Maintenance Accessibility Design
Considering the convenience of daily maintenance and replacement of wear parts to reduce downtime and maintenance costs.
