DFM Services For Plastic Manufacturers

DFM Services For Plastic Manufacturers

Plastic manufacturers benefit most from DFM input when it comes from a team that will also be responsible for actually producing the part, rather than a consultancy with no stake in how well the final tool performs. Andel Plastics provides DFM services for plastic manufacturers from our Birmingham facility, combining in house mouldflow analysis with direct tool design expertise to review and refine component designs before tooling begins. We accept projects at any development stage, from initial sketches through to complete CAD models, working through each design to flag anything likely to cause moulding problems later. Because we also run the toolroom and moulding machines involved in producing the finished part, our recommendations are grounded in practical experience rather than generic design rules. This joined up approach is built specifically to minimise revisions once tooling is underway, since catching an issue at the design stage is always cheaper than reworking a completed mould.

For plastic manufacturers who want DFM services with genuine manufacturing accountability behind them, this is exactly how our service operates.
