Mold Manufacturing

Mold Manufacturing

A mold is a mold-forming structural element used in injection molding, pressing of polymer composite materials. The design and geometry of the mold determines the shape of the future product, its texture, roughness, density, strength. Molds are used for serial production of plastic products of identical configuration.

Flexi Mould specializes in mold design & manufacturing for a variety of applications, including automotive partsmedical devices, consumer electronics, and industrial plastic components. We have rich experience in producing high-precision molds for items such as automotive lighting, bumpers, decorative trims, LED lenses, medical tips, and centrifuge tubes.

As a leading company of mold manufacturing in China, Flexi Mould excels in the production of automotive lamp molds. Our team consists of 28 plastic mold engineers and 45 skilled technicians who are adept at crafting precise plastic molds.

Flexi Mould sources its steel from reputable suppliers such as LKM, Gröditz, and ASSAB. Depending on the mold manufacturing requirements, we opt for steel from the USA and Japan for mould manufacturing. Our reliable steel suppliers, skilled technicians, and advanced precision mould manufacturing equipment ensure the high quality of our moulds.

Annually, Flexi Mould has the capacity to manufacture 570 mould sets, with about 40% of these catering to the automotive industry. The remaining capacity is dedicated to creating moulds for medical equipment and consumer electronics products.We are proficient in creating moulds for premium automotive brands such as Land Rover, Mercedes Benz, and BMW.

Our engineers design plastic moulds based on the features of the plastic part. The mould types we create include 2 plate moulds, 3 plate moulds, pin-point gate moulds, hot runner manifold moulds, thoroughly hardened moulds (above 44HRC), and pre-hardened moulds (below 44HRC). For mould manufacturing, we utilize hot runner systems from leading brands such as DME, MOLD-MASTER, SYNVENTIVE, HUSKY, INCOE, YOUDU, SM, and more.

How do we control the Quality in Mold Manufacturing

Quality is important to TDL mold manufacturing, it is also non-negotiable for clients.

TDL relies on high-quality plastic molds and injection molding products to obtain a very good 

reputation, trust and long-term cooperation with clients.

Incoming Material Inspection

All raw materials are verified for conformity upon receipt. Our Quality Control team inspect dimensions, hardness to ensure molds’ long service life.

Manufacturing Inspection

In the manufacturing process, measurement of each mold parts and the electrodes is essential. Only when the dimension of each part is confirmed will it enter the next step. The advantage of doing this is to spot any possible errors in advance, avoiding waste of time and money.

Finished Products and Shipment Inspection

Finished parts undergo final inspection by our Quality System Manager or shipping personnel prior to any shipment. All parts are visually inspected and are carefully packaged and compactly packaged to ensure their safe arrival to our customers at minimum cost.
