Injection molds are more than just steel blocks—they are precision instruments. At Dongxinda Mould Technology Co., Ltd., we understand that high-accuracy mold assembly is the foundation of long-lasting, high-performance tooling.

Even with the best design and machining, poor assembly can cause misalignment, parting line mismatch, premature wear, and inconsistent part quality. That’s why our mold assembly process is carried out under strict quality control with expert technicians and precision measuring tools.

Key Elements in Mold Assembly Precision:

  • Tight Tolerance Matching: All components—including inserts, ejector pins, sliders, and cores—are fitted within micron-level tolerance.

  • Alignment Systems: Hardened guide pillars, bushings, and taper locks ensure perfect registration between mold halves.

  • Compression Fit & Preload Balancing: We adjust component compression and spring load to avoid deformation and uneven stress.

  • Full Mold Trial Verification: Each mold undergoes trial sampling to verify function, fit, and movement before shipment.

The result? Stable, repeatable production—even in high-speed, multi-million shot applications.

FAQs:

  • How do you ensure mold alignment?
    We use high-precision components, 3D inspection tools, and mold-fitting gauges.

  • Can misalignment affect product tolerance?
    Absolutely. Even 0.05 mm deviation can cause flash or poor fit in the final part.

  • Do you test molds before delivery?
    Yes. Every mold is sampled with customer resin and verified under real injection conditions.
