Precision injection mould tools - Steel Mould Tools

The need for low cost tools and short lead times means that more and more tools are made from aluminium alloy, but a steel injection mould tool is still the best choice for you if :-

• You have a project that is sure to need millions of mouldings, or if
• The mould tool needs complex mechanisms that constantly rub together during plastic part production.

In these instances a steel mould tool will simply be the most durable solution for your project needs and the most cost-efficient in the long run.

Toolcraft's steel injection mould tools benefit from our 35 years + toolmaking experience, which started when steel mould tools were the norm. We can advise you on the best choices for your project. Our experience allows us to spot potential cost savings for you, foresee problems, and make excellent quality mould tools in very good lead times.

Our other tool options include: aluminium alloy mould tools, chinese mould tools and insert only mould tools.

Excellent Technology

By investing in technology, we make injection mould tools for you at low cost & in less time than our competitors, because :

• Our tool design+manufacture software can import a vast array of file types to eliminate some design and production time normally required. This way we can offer you rapid production of injection mould tools at much lower cost, saving you time & money.
• Our machining software calculates the optimum toolpaths needed to make the tool. It also stops cutters from machining areas cleared by previous ones. This means we'll make your mould tools in less time.

• Our mould flow analysing software shows us in detail where air trapment and hotspots might arise, where the weld lines will be and much more. This means we can catch those issues before they ever arise, saving time & cost again. We include this service for free with orders for mould tools.
