Customer was an America based company specializing in developing products in home appliance. Considering quantity, consistent quality, cost saving, rapid tooling and injection molding was ideal process. We offered suggestions to improve the fitting and reduce manufacturing cost.
EDM tooling coreElectrical Discharge Machining (EDM) the tooling core. EDM was usually used to make the CNC milled round corners to straight or sharp ones.
tooling coreThe two parts were put into one tooling with one cavity of each part to reduce the tooling making cost and time, and its injection molding as well.
insert moldingCustomer was new to injection molding, we offered free and necessary design optimizations to insert mold M2 nuts well and improve the fitting.
plastic injection molded partsThe injection molded parts. Part to be injection molded had to be designed well to facilitate its production for low cost and better fitting & appearance.
