Reverse engineering & Product design and Optimization

The design stage is a critical and indispensable part of the product creation process. At GV MOLD, our talented team of designers and engineers is committed to delivering exceptional design assistance. We excel in conceptualizing and developing cutting-edge plastic products and parts, starting with initial sketches and blueprints. If product enhancement is required, our proficiency in reverse engineering enables us to build accurate 3D models, customizing them to enhance manufacturing productivity.

Tooling and Mold Building

The craft of plastic injection mold fabrication involves the intricate development of precision steel molds employed within plastic injection molding systems. This advanced tooling is designed to stringent specifications, ensuring the transformation of molten plastic into pre-determined geometries with exacting precision and uniformity. The mold fabrication process includes comprehensive mold design, selection of appropriate tool steel, computer numerical control (CNC) machining, and intricate assembly, all of which are vital to the manufacture of diverse plastic components.

DFM & MF

DFM (Design for Manufacturing) and MFA (Mold Flow Analysis) play pivotal roles in the plastic injection molding process, guaranteeing the feasibility and efficiency of part production. DFM refines the design to accommodate the molding process, forestalling defects such as sink marks and warping. MFA validates the mold’s structural soundness and the accurate placement of part features during injection, which diminishes the likelihood of manufacturing defects and assures uniform output. These strategic procedures enhance process optimization, reduce the need for rework, and bolster the overall efficiency and profitability of the molding venture.

Material Selection

Choosing the right plastic for molded components involves assessing the specific needs of the application, including required levels of durability, elasticity, thermal tolerance, and chemical inertness. Furthermore, characteristics like resistance to wear and electrical characteristics are critical. The selected plastic significantly influences the component’s performance, economic impact, and ecological footprint, shaping the design and functionality of the product.

Early Supplier Involvement

The strategy of ESI (Early Supplier Involvement) in product development entails engaging suppliers at the initial design phase, thereby nurturing a culture of collaboration and capitalizing on their technical proficiency. This proactive method not only curtails costs and elevates product quality but also expedites the journey to market by refining the selection of materials, streamlining processes, and enhancing design with manufacturability in mind. ESI further fortifies communication channels, enabling more adept risk mitigation and well-informed strategic choices, culminating in the creation of more market-viable and environmentally sustainable products.
