Die Cast Tooling
The multi-slide difference
Our proprietary multi-slide technology offers a number of unique advantages:
- Net shape first time, eliminating secondary operations like assembly and machining
- Complex geometry and tight tolerances at high speed for world-class productivity and lower total costs
- Minimum part-to-part variation compared to standard multi-cavity dies
- More compact tools that are less prone to parting-line variation and its negative effect on the finished part’s dimensional tolerances
Taking standard tooling to a new level
Standard die cast tooling comes in single cavities (one part per cycle) or multiple cavities (more than one part per cycle). Our standard tooling process is designed to offer you efficiency in production and lower costs.
- We always aim to build dies which efficiently cope with high volume production
- We focus on the design of our dies, putting in as many of the part’s features as needed to avoid secondary operations. Our goal is always net shape first time
- This careful planning eliminates machining, reducing costs
- To ensure the longevity of our dies, our tool designers predict what part of the die may wear out and insert this as a separate piece of steel
- Water lines and cooling are carefully planned to ensure efficient production
