See every problem before it becomes expensive. Our comprehensive Moldflow analysis gives you X-ray vision into your manufacturing process.

Fill Pattern Analysis

Visualize how molten plastic flows through your mold. Identify short shots, weld lines, and air traps before production.

3D Warpage Prediction

Get quantitative warpage data showing exactly how your part will deform. Ensure tolerances are met first time.

Cooling Optimization

Design optimal cooling channels for uniform temperature and minimum cycle time. Reduce cycles by 20-25%.

Gate Location Study

Test multiple gate scenarios virtually. Find the optimal position for aesthetics, strength, and manufacturability.

PSI

Pack Pressure Analysis

Determine exact packing profiles to eliminate sink marks and voids while avoiding overpacking and flash.

Material Selection

Compare different resin grades side-by-side. See how materials affect flow, warpage, and cycle time.

Frequently Asked Questions - Moldflow Analysis

Frequently Asked Questions

What files do I need for Moldflow analysis?
We need your 3D CAD file (STEP or IGES format), the plastic material/resin grade, and any critical tolerance requirements. We'll guide you through the rest.
How long does analysis take?
Basic analysis: 3-5 days. Professional: 5-7 days. Advanced: 10-15 days. Rush service available for critical projects.
Can you analyze multi-cavity molds?
Yes! We specialize in multi-cavity analysis including runner balancing to ensure all cavities fill evenly.
How accurate is Moldflow?
When performed by experienced analysts, Moldflow is typically within 5-10% of actual production results. It excels at comparative analysis for design optimization.
What exactly does a tooling project manager do?
Your tooling project manager serves as a single point of contact, coordinating all aspects of mold development from design review through production approval. They manage communication with mold makers, track milestones, conduct quality inspections, and ensure your project stays on schedule and within budget.
How do you select and qualify your global moldmaking partners?
We rigorously vet all moldmaking partners through on-site facility audits, review of past work, capability assessments, and trial projects. Our partners must demonstrate expertise in precision tooling, quality systems, and proven track records. We maintain ongoing relationships only with shops that consistently meet our high standards for quality, communication, and delivery.
Do you offer rush analysis services?
Yes! We understand some projects have urgent timelines. Rush service is available for critical projects with expedited turnaround times. Contact us to discuss your specific timeline needs and we'll work to accommodate your schedule.
