Tech Mold has three buildings that house different specialties to provide its customers with a full service approach. The main facility houses administration, sales, engineering and production manufacturing, including molds, special tooling, components and mold bases; formal apprenticeship training and provides training of customer maintenance personnel. Tech Mold R&D contains non-aluminum prototype molds, pre-production (referred to by some as pilot) molds, repairs of existing molds, and fixtures, as well as mold engineering and development. Tech Mold East accommodates mold qualification/tryouts, process validation, short-run molding, and automated manufacturing cell development, and private customer working rooms. Additionally, project management is demonstrated from start to finish—with a mold design book provided that shows the complete mold design/build so that maintenance is made easier for the OEM or the molder who will run and maintain the mold.
