Tooling

Tooling is the most important part for molding quality parts. Part design must be optimized for the molding process to yield high quality parts. RPM Norcal has manufactured more the 1,000 molds; we have the experience to aid in tooling design to mold the best quantity parts possible.

We have many type of tooling options to help customers mold custom parts while keeping the tooling costs in line with the number of parts required over the life of the program.

Tooling media's we offer, from lowest to highest quantities of parts required:

  • Direct machined wax or polyurethane tooling - 1-100 parts
  • Cast silicon tooling- 1-100's of parts
  • Cast composite tooling 50-1000's of parts
  • Direct machined aluminum tooling 100's-10,000's of parts

Undercuts, window, bosses, ribs and threaded inserts are no issue for any type of tooling methods. Contact RPM Norcal to review your tooling requirements.
