Molding & Prototyping Services
By using soft-tooling, State Industries can provide customers cost effective and rapid delivery of sample and prototype parts. Our designers use the latest technology in virtual computer modeling, development of patterns by rapid prototyping or SLA, and producing silicon or epoxy molds to provide soft tools for prototype development. After testing and approval of Prototypes, they could be moved to production phase easily by increasing cavities or switching to more permanent metal and hard tooling.
Due to the low cost of our soft tooling technique, even parts intended for eventual injection molding process could be produced first by this method, tested, revised and modified numerous times and only after final approval, these parts could be moved to the injection molding phase.
This technique therefore eliminates the initial high cost and lengthy period of producing hard tools and enables designers to try a few different concepts inexpensively before they commit to more expensive processes.
State Industries guaranties the appearance, hardness and quality of these parts to be identical or better than parts than are produced by injection molding.
