Tooling Solutions
Advantages of in-house mold design and tooling solutions
Medbio is a leading provider of high-quality tooling solutions for the medical device industry. Our expert team is dedicated to delivering innovative and precise tooling solutions that meet the unique needs of our clients. Explore our capabilities in tooling and discover how we can help bring your medical device to life.
Our corporate roots stem from a large state-of-the-art tool room and highly skilled mold designers. We utilize the latest in mold design and flow analysis software, enabling us to produce very complex and precise SPI class production molds.
Part Design and Modeling
Our engineering staff has a strong background in manufacturing and can provide recommendations to improve moldability, tool integrity, and delivery. We can take existing 2D part prints or existing molded parts and use reverse engineering to create a 3D part model which will become a new parametrically linked 2D drawing. The new drawing can be used for part model evaluations and verification.
Mold Design
Our mold design engineers are supplied with the latest hardware and software technology. We provide detailed, comprehensive mold designs that not only exceed our customers’ expectations, but provide the necessary direction for our tool makers to build the most complex molds.
Mold Function Animation
Using the latest CAD software technology, we can supply an animated mold function video, showing the mold opening and closing. More complex designs show complete mold function along with side action, multi-stage ejection, reel-to-reel indexing, multi-shot rotational molding, and tandem mold co-injection. Mold function animations are especially useful for more in-depth design reviews, as well as assisting with our customers molding team set-up processes.
