TOOL DESIGN & MANUFACTURE

Advanced Toolmaking

Velosity’s highly skilled staff of engineers and mold makers use the latest CAD/CAM systems to meet the ever-changing needs of its customers. Our customers rely on Velosity for advice in all phases of their project development. We typically participate in part design refinement as well as mold design. Product costs are highly influenced by the design of the mold as well as the design of the product being manufactured. Our highly experienced engineers and mold makers are capable of providing the creative input necessary to make the best possible decisions.

With our multiple, vertically integrated tooling resources, Velosity has one of the largest captive tool shops in the United States with the bandwidth to produce hundreds of tools each year. We can fabricate tooling to run in our molding machines or yours.

TOOL DESIGN & MANUFACTURE

Mold Making

Our attention to detail and our manufacturing discipline create precision components that provide you the benefits of full interchangeability of components. These benefits provide lower maintenance costs, increased mold life, decreased cycle times and consistent product quality.

TOOL DESIGN & MANUFACTURE

Thermoplastics & Elastomers

Thermoplastic and elastomeric materials serve the needs of many industries for everything from medical devices to defense and aerospace parts. We build tooling that supports products using the complete range of engineering grade and non-engineering grade materials.

TOOL DESIGN & MANUFACTURE

Silicone

Velosity can help you design and manufacture your hard-to-build silicone parts through silicone molding. We can enhance product design for improved manufacturability and have designed and manufactured our own cold deck systems. We specialize in supporting the medical device, industrial, and defense and aerospace industries.

TOOL DESIGN & MANUFACTURE

Conformal Cooling

When part designs allow, we build tooling that takes advantage of using conformal cooling channels. Conformal cooling promotes faster and more uniform temperature control, which significantly decreases molding cycle times. Let Velosity show you how conformal cooling can help reduce product cycle times and increase part quality. 

TOOL DESIGN & MANUFACTURE

Multi-Shot

Multi-shot injection molding, also known as two-shot injection molding, is a process by which two or more colors or materials are injected to create a single part or component. By getting Velosity involved early in the DFM (Design for Manufacturing) process, our engineers can help you consolidate part numbers into a single component. Velosity excels at designing and manufacturing multi-shot tooling.

TOOL DESIGN & MANUFACTURE

Metal Injection Molding

Metal Injection Molding (MIM) is a process that merges two established technologies: plastic injection molding and powdered metallurgy. MIM expands manufacturing capabilities, allowing the production of precise, complex parts in large quantities. Velosity manufactures numerous MIM tools on an annual basis. We also have the ability to sample molds in the green state. These tools are ultimately shipped to our customers for volume manufacturing and post-molding processing.

TOOL DESIGN & MANUFACTURE

Mold Building

Velosity began as a mold builder in 1965, and we have maintained that core capability ever since. Having multiple tooling shops within our organization provides us with complete control over the tooling design and manufacturing process. Whether you need a single cavity or multi-cavity mold, you have the confidence in knowing that we are able to control things every step of the way. In addition, we are able to perform real-time mold maintenance to keep our production facilities running. We also have one of the most rigorous mold maintenance programs that helps extend the life of your tooling assets. This level of expertise and control significantly sets us apart from the competition.
