AS ONE INDUSTRY LEADER
SAID, "NO ONE MAKES ANY MONEY CHANGING MOLDS."
CONVERTIBLE BULK TRAY MOLD
A Consumer Electronics manufacturer needed a molding solution to make bulk tray packaging
at a lower cost. The traditional method for manufacturing is
to produce two molds. One mold for the top and bottom foam and
another mold to produce the protective foam between the units.
The D8-engineered solution was to make a mold with a convertible
half to allow the molding of both parts in the same mold with
a simple change of mold geometry. In addition to the savings
in tooling cost, the efficiency of the single convertible mold
formed the foam parts in less time than the two-mold set used
in the past. Savings were realized in the tooling, the part cost,
and downtime for mold changes were significantly reduced. Contact
