Mold Transfer Programs

Empire Precision Plastics has a history of successful tool transfers.

Naturally there are concerns when the need arises to transfer a mold from one vendor to another. We understand how difficult the process can be.

Empire Precision knows tooling – it is the centerpiece for the entire injection molding process. That is why we take great pains to protect and maximize your tooling investments. When we receive feedback from our customers we can address problematic issues and bring them to a successful conclusion.

Empire Precision has skilled tradesmen and engineering systems that can provide solutions through our systematic approach:

  • Debugging, modifying and repairing tools with a scientific molding-based diagnosis program
  • Reacting to your immediate production requirements by providing short and long-term solutions.
  • Providing an extensive mold care and maintenance program.
  • Keeping mission-critical high-volume programs with maximum up time through our preventive maintenance programs.

Scientific Molding Principles – Repeatability and Process Control

The days of "black magic" mold processing are over. By using a systematic approach based on well-established processing principles, we can develop fast, repeatable machine cycle times without compromising the tool, material or product quality. We’ll keep the tool in excellent working order to extend its productive service life. If the tool is complex, has delicate features, or has an at-risk design, we’ll review options to keep your product running smoothly, without interruptions or added costs.

In addition to this systematic approach, Empire Precision’s innovative, pro-active Advance Project Team will work with your company’s technical and procurement staff to find ways to reduce costs by increasing productivity. We understand the importance of quality, cost and delivery!
