Mould and tooling design plays a critical role in creating high-quality die-casting components and optimizing manufacturing processes.

The value of in-house mould and tooling design

What are all the Benefits of In-House Mould and Tooling Design?

Direct Information Flows

An in-house technical department guarantees an immediate technical reference for all company units and customers, allowing for smoother and more transparent communication.

Enhancement of Skills

The skills and experience of the collaborators find a practical application in the design of moulds and equipment, ensuring high quality results.

Prevention of Potential Problems

Mould flow and filling simulation enables robust proactive mould design, preventing quality issues and maximizing tooling efficiency.

Optimization of the Production Process

Virtual simulation helps to enhance the knowledge of the process, allowing experimentation and verification of the expected results, improving the accuracy of operations.

Lean and Effective Process Management

Systematic design of resources, including moulds, machines, and ancillary systems, creates a standard that streamlines processes, reduces costs, and optimizes operation and maintenance.

Cost Reduction

In-house design allows for process optimization, reducing costs and maximizing resource efficiency.

Targeted Evaluation of Mould Life and Yield

We manage moulds based on their wear and yield over time, ensuring optimal durability and reliable performance.

Constant Monitoring of Projects

Project management takes place in close collaboration with all members of the company and customers’ organizations, thanks to dedicated project managers.

We have always been aware of the difference that can be made by the possibility of managing the design of moulds and equipment internally: for this reasons our company has a highly specialized technical department for this activity, including an up-do-date metrology room for the management of the samplings.

What are the Factors that make our Department dedicated to the Design of Moulds and Equipment so effective?

  • Experienced designers and process engineers
  • Our specific standard and specifications for the design and the construction of the moulds
  • Several CAD design softwares
  • An always up-to-date software and hardware resource for simulating casting flows and mould filling
  • A network of reliable mould makers and tool suppliers that is tested and integrated into the mould making process

Our technical department allows us to design “in-house” casting moulds and trimming tools, as well as machining and process control equipment, to enhance the potential of our production and services.

An approach that guarantees superior quality and tighter control over every phase of the production process, starting from the feasibility analysis of the castings and related equipment in the offer phase, passing through the design of the moulds and up to the realization of the finished product.
