The design and manufacture of injection molds is a strategic step for obtaining quality parts throughout the project. This is the reason for which we have chosen to in-source this work of design<\/a> and manufacture, directly in our factory.<\/span><\/p>\n

All the tools that we manufacture in our workshop comply with European Standards. You invest in a quality production asset. We benefit from the total control of their manufacture: design, purchasing, scheduling, machining, adjustments and maintenance. You receive and can check the 3D mold file and you remain the owner of your tool until its end of service life.\u00a0 Depending on your product specification, we can manufacture any type of injection mold depending on the quantity, the type of parts to produce, and the choice of materials:<\/span> hot channel molds, multi-imprint molds, dual-injection molds, over-molding molds, gas-assisted molds. Our manufacturing lead-times vary generally from 5 to 8 weeks.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1571319156178{margin-top: 50px !important;margin-bottom: 50px !important;}”][vc_column]
