Upping Your Game with Sampling

We have seen a definite trend in mold manufacturers adding or increasing their sampling or full production molding capabilities, and packaging, personal care and medical moldmaker Dynamic Tool & Design is one such company making the investment. 

Dynamic completed a new technology center at its Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin facility last fall. The 17,000-square foot addition increased total square footage to 51,000 square feet and provides space for in-house sampling and training.

The Technology Center houses five molding machines ranging from 80 tons to 650 tons (two are multi-shot capable), which allow for in-house sampling and mold qualification. The Technology Center also enhances in-house training for mold operation and mold maintenance.

Floor space and other resources have been set aside to provide for turnkey projects.

"A customer can have a press shipped to Dynamic and we will build and install a mold in that press, sample, debug and qualify the entire project. We then ship it to the customer ready for production," notes Tom Andrews, Dynamic's Operations Manager.

"Customers rely on Dynamic to help them develop new and improved products, and the technology center has expanded that capability. High quality prototyping is our forte, so with moldmaking and molding facilities under one roof, part changes happen quickly and efficiently," says Dave Miller, Dynamic President.
