The capability to perform Tooling Maintenance, Repair, & Mold Making in-house has been a strategic part of our business since its founding. Good mold maintenance and repair is the foundation for providing customers with reliable parts. With ever decreasing lead-time requirements, having this ability in-house is vital.

Injection Molding Tool Design

Our in-house tool design expertise ensures creative and robust tooling solutions that offer value with the initial build as well as future maintenance cost savings. We can handle many complex tooling revisions, repairs, and complete refurbishments in-house..

Prototyping and 3D Printing

Automation Plastics can provide valuable advice when choosing the right prototyping approach. Through our in-house capability and several outside vendors we can provide prototype parts machined, molded, or through any of the various additive process technologies. 3D printing allows creative problem solving, cost effectiveness, lessens downtime and can be used in variety of departments throughout the company. Whether your prototyping needs are parts for demonstration purposes, functional testing, pilot production, or built to demonstrate a new tooling or manufacturing approach, we have the experience to deliver.

Our staff of talented mold makers and tooling technicians utilize systematic and comprehensive processes to ensure molds are running at peak performance. Our mold engineering group has the ability to handle the smallest repair and develop effective regain plans, as well as engineer and manage complete rebuilds, extensive repairs, and new mold builds.
