Mold Components
A Low-Tech Solution for Cutting Moldmaking Costs
Machine-ready blanks have been available for decades, yet mold manufacturers have been slow to adopt them, even though they can save as much as 30 percent off overall mold and mold component costs and free up machine time for creating more in-house capacity.
