Technology Roundup: Featured Mold Builders

Mold builders are the people and businesses that make the moldmaking industry go round. Better put by Crescent Industries, “Tool and die-makers are expert workers or precisely put, artisans of a manufacturing unit.” As such, each business provides its customers with a unique range of in-house services and capabilities to meet specific demands and requirements in a variety of end markets. In this latest tech roundup, MMT features just a few of those mold builders whose work continues to make waves in the industry.
