Our Quick Turn Molding Process

Design Consultation

Initial discussions focus on part design, material selection, and production requirements. This step ensures that all specifications align with project goals. 

Rapid Prototyping

A prototype is created using 3D printing or CNC machining. This allows for testing and validation of the design before moving to full-scale production. 

Tooling Development

Custom molds are designed and manufactured using precision machining techniques. This phase is critical for achieving the desired part quality and dimensional accuracy. 

Injection Molding Setup

The molds are installed in injection molding machines, where temperature and pressure settings are optimized for the selected material. 

Production Run

Injection molding begins, producing parts at high speed while maintaining consistent quality. Automated quality checks are often integrated to monitor for defects. 

Finishing and Delivery

After production, parts undergo any necessary finishing processes, such as trimming or surface treatments, before being packaged and delivered to the customer. 

Quick Turn Molding Materials

Quick Turn Molding uses advanced thermoplastic materials for rapid production. This ensures high-quality components with precise dimensional accuracy and exceptional durability.
