One of the most common questions for organisations looking to source plastic mouldings is: –
“How much will a plastic injection mould tool cost?”
It is one of the most important questions since the actual mould tool cost represents a significant expense in upfront production costs. Having said that, many factors go into determining the full tooling expenditure.
There are various ways to reduce this initial outlay such as: –
-
Product design
-
Product material selection
-
Product complexity
-
Mould tool base and insert material
-
Number of cavities
-
Type of feed
-
Manual or auto tooling
-
Mould machining
-
Post moulding assembly
