In-house Tooling: Precision Molds for Medical Parts

Medical Injection Molding with the Quality of In-House Tooling

Enplas Life Tech’s injection molding services with in-house tooling is a fast, reliable, and worry-free solution for your medical injection molding needs.

Choosing an injection molder with in-house tooling means quality, accountability, and speed all under one roof. Because the entire process is performed by a team that works side-by-side, the responsibility of your product’s quality is shared rather than trusting part of it to someone else.

And because our tooling service is in-house, we’re able to control the priority of your mold—meaning you get your product faster and more efficiently.

Need a seamless, worry-free supply of quality medical parts from prototyping to mass production? Look no further: trust Enplas Life Tech’s medical injection molding services with in-house tooling.

Medical Quality Assured

High Medical Standards

Molds built by Enplas Life Tech’s in-house tool shop are not only reliable, they also meet the high standards of medical-grade quality and traceability. Our mold-making process adheres to process validation, an industry standard procedure for injection-molded medical products. Our molds are high-quality SPI class 101-102.

Molds & Tooling for All Stages

Small parts. Intricate shapes. Insert molding. Thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) overmolding. Enplas Life Tech provides complex tools for stages from prototyping to mass production with our state-of-the-art machinery. As a one-stop shop, we provide DFM guidance and tool design to mold making and first sample production. Our archival knowledge of a mold’s history allows us to provide the best long-term mass production mold maintenance.

Testimonial

“We were looking for fast turnaround plastic injection tooling without sacrificing quality. The goals were hit on time and the quality was very high. I now consider Enplas Life Tech my first and usually only choice of supplier for plastic parts. We also suggest them to many other corporations for their plastic tooling needs.”

Faster Development

Production-Grade Prototyping

Speed and quality: you can have both. Molds are turned around quickly while achieving high, production-grade quality due to our in-house team’s comprehensive plastics manufacturing expertise and direct communication. We manufacture prototype tools with precision hardened-steel cavities and cores, ensuring quality consistency while allowing for revisions. This minimizes the recurring cost and stress of purchasing new molds when soft tools yield unsatisfactory results or dwindling part consistency.

Transition to Mass Production

Ramping up from prototype to mass production? Enplas Life Tech can help plan your transition from single or two-cavity prototype molds to multi-cavity production molds and make the progression smooth and cost-effective. Our onsite tool shop allows accurate tool revisions without loss of time and information. Contact us to discuss whether a cold or hot-runner system will fit your future needs.

Testimonial

“I have placed many tools at Enplas Life Tech, specifically because of the customer service. Enplas is always responsive, willing to address the problem no matter who is responsible, and will work extra hard to help meet the customer’s deadlines. A quality site that I would recommend to any company.”

Modular Tooling

Molds typically consist of two elements: the mold base with cooling, venting, and ejecting systems; and the intricate core and cavity, which take the shape of the components being molded. In a modular system, the core and cavity blocks are built separately from the mold, eliminating the need to purchase a dedicated mold base. This can save you time and money with a quality frame already available. Ask our engineers if this approach is right for you!
