Dan Mishek Co-Owner of Vista Technologies spoke about Rapid Tooling at Minni Tek. Minni Tek was a half day seminar focusing on Low Volume Production. Dan’s Speech focused on using Aluminum Molds for rapid injection molding low volume production parts. He also shows how Rapid tooling can be used for undercuts, hand pick-outs, overmolding and complex molds. There was also comparisons between Rapid Tooling, Direct Digital Manufacturing and CNC Machining (Horizontal vs. Vertical Milling)

Question by areena666: What is the easiest and cheapest way to get tooling or moulds made for a short run production?
Our concept design for a new cap closure is nearly finished and we will soon have a few functioning prototypes shortly. However before we go into mass production we feel it will be best to pilot or market test our products to a group of people, our friends and also potential clients.

In order to do this I have been told it may be possible to go to a plastic injection firm and request a short run production..lets say 1000 – 5000 samples

However tooling may be needed….. soft tooling or hard steel tooling..
We are UK based and i have also been advised of not considering China as it is not exactly on our door step if something goes wrong..

Please advise:)

good point..i think i need to rephrase my question…

i have been told nowadays that any form of tooling or moulds can be built but the costs can raise from 1000 up to 100 000……

cheapest – by this i mean cost effective…it is only for samples etc not for mass production

so this for example could be a soft tool, like aluminium,

easiest – i mean by this, maybe there could be a a method I am not aware of…..a simple solution….

Answer by onebear469
why do u think the easiest way would be the cheapist?

What do you think? Answer below!

Are you looking for the possibility to produce better plastic products with injection moulding within a shorter cycle time? Do you need as mould maker the right steel to satisfy your challenging requirements? Are process quality, cost saving, and innovation fundamental in your daily business? You will probably find interesting hints in this video about the EOS e-Manufacturing solution for tooling and injection moulding.

This video is a compilation of footage shot on location by Global Sourcing Specialists (www.productgss.com) in Chinese factories. The video gives an overview of the injection molding tooling process, as well as how products are produced, assembled, and packaged. The song is “Roll it Up” by Crystal Method.
