Design for
Manufacturability
Our engineers staff and project teams are highly skilled at Design for Manufacturability (DFM) and Design for Assembly (DFA). We will recommend important changes and the correct materials to be selected so your part or project will move expeditiously from design through qualification / validation and into production.

Moldflow
Velosity is well versed in the advanced usage of Moldflow software and techniques. Predicting flow patterns and identifying potential mold filling concerns early on will save time and revision costs later in a project.

Process
Development
Our process development team excels in the implementation of Scientific Injection Molding Principles. Process development starts with effective DFM, leading to superior tooling design, which sets the stage for robust process development and high quality products.

Tooling Design & Fabrication
Types of Tooling:
The type of tooling best used for your application is a function of a number of inputs. Part volumes, part complexity, part design confidence, material selection and product lifecycle must all be considered when selecting the type of mold to design and build.
• Lower volumes – consider master unit die (MUD)
• Similar part designs and materials – Family tools may be a consideration
• Similar part designs and different materials – could warrant an interchangeable mold inserts
• High volume projects – multi-cavity and possibly a hot runner system
• High-cost raw materials – creative tool design solutions to reduce waste
Whatever your requirements we will help you select the best tooling options for your application.
