Tooling & Design

A moulded part can only look as good as the tool it was made in. That is why we do not compromise on the design, manufacture and quality of our overmoulding tools.

Whether it is for prototyping, development or production, we are committed to producing quality tools that last. We aim to create toolsets that offer great value for money and are optimised for purpose — this is why we use aluminium moulds that offer cost-efficient tooling.

Our low-pressure overmoulding tools have been used across the world since the process was first evolved during the mid-90s. These precision mould tools are created by importing 3D CAD model data using the STEP (ISO 10303) standard to network directly with state-of-the-art four and five-axis CNC mills.

We can also work to tolerances expressed in microns or produce bespoke tools if necessary, and overmoulding tools can even be created without drawings if only parts are required. This process involves selecting suitable materials against required performance criteria, including interpreting a material’s rheology (flow-rate behaviour). This is all part of the overmoulding service we offer at Liad Electronics.
