Customers in many industries count on the expertise of Diamond Tool & Mold to fabricate custom molds that meet the exacting quality demands of their production operations. We produced this core and cavity mold for a customer in the agriculture industry. It features a 7-part design to optimize production of plastic liners used in cow milking equipment.

Materials of construction included 4140 pre-hardened steel for the sprue cap, Nak-55 for the core, and 440 hard stainless for the remaining 5 components. Working from customer-supplied drawings, we utilized our computerized CNC turning and milling equipment, as well as our precision wire EDM machine, to form the intricate geometries of each component. Secondary operations consisted of heat treating to impart the required hardness, grinding the surface to a high quality and dimensionally accurate finish, etching to apply the markings, and fitting the core.

We shipped 20 of these multi-component, single cavity molds, which featured overall dimensions of 3" in diameter and 12.5" height, to the customer within a 10-12 week time frame. Our skilled, precision craftsmanship enabled us to provide them with high quality tooling that would benefit their process efficiency and deliver a long service life.
