Your injection mold is the heart of your production line. But how do you know when it’s time to retire it? Here are 3 red flags:

  1. 🧱 Decreased Part Quality: Warping, flashing, or inconsistent finishes? The mold may be worn or misaligned.

  2. Longer Cycle Times: If your cycle times are creeping up, it could be due to inefficient cooling channels.

  3. 🧰 Frequent Repairs Needed: Constant breakdowns are a sign that maintenance is no longer enough.

💡 Tip: Regular mold inspections and data tracking can help you spot issues before they cause downtime.
