Problems and Improvement Methods in the Molding Site: Initial Cost Reduction Methods
The recommended suitable method is to design while considering everything from product design to molds and molding.
There are several ways to reduce mold manufacturing costs, but the reality is that many manufacturers leave it entirely to mold production companies. If product manufacturers are leaving it entirely to others, that’s one thing, but when molding companies that receive production requests from manufacturers completely delegate the task to mold makers, it not only negatively impacts productivity and quality but also fails to contribute to the accumulation of technology, which is problematic. The key point is the quality of the mold production company you choose to work with. It is important to consider not only dimensional accuracy but also whether the mold design takes into account moldability and whether the mold considers the characteristics of the intended resin, as a comprehensive sense of balance is essential.
