Moulds

 

 

PILOT MOULD DESIGN

 

Cooling circuits designed and optimized to obtain the maximum performances.

 

The pilot mould cooling circuit simulates exactly the production cavity cooling channels.

 

 

 

 

PILOT MOULD PROJECT

 

The mould engineering (bottle neck, shoulder, body and bottom), as well as the type of materials to be used for the mould manufacturing are duly studied.

 

 

 

INDUSTRIAL MOULD PROJECT

 

The mould project is made with the purpose to obtain the best performances and the longest life time, considering the minor intervention maintenance

 

All the mould details are duly evaluated by the Product Department and have to be approved by a dedicated team before starting the tooling manufacturing.

 

The mould documentation supplied to customers is very wide and detailed, allowing the customer to proceed with a quick identification of the material used, spare parts and important specifications in case of standard maintenance.

 

 

MOULD MAKERS CHECK LIST

 

Moulds are manufactured as per Techne specifications; mould makers strictly follow the project check list to certificate the supply.


The documentation also includes the original technical features of the material used for the manufacturing of the moulds, as per the contract specifications.

 

 

MOULD CAVITY CONTROL

 

Upon request, it is possible to control the dimensioning of each cavity in check the repeatability as per CP/CPK procedures.
Such a control can be made through optical or contact system.

 

 

By comparing the 3D cavity scanning with the 3D file of the cavity design or of the pilot mould, it is possible to verify the repeatability of all the cavities as well as their volumetric analysis.
