MASTERING MOLD DESIGN:

TGM’S PRECISION ENGINEERING PROCESS

  • Over the years, TGM has demonstrated its excellence and top-notch knowledge and expertise in the field of injection molding by manufacturing molds for over 30 countries around the world. We put immense effort into each and every project and handle them at a personal level.
  • Once a viable concept emerges, the team at TGM delves into the intricate details of design and engineering. Utilizing state-of-the-art software tools and simulation techniques, they meticulously craft product designs that optimize performance, functionality, and manufacturability. This phase is where ideas take shape, evolving into tangible designs primed for production.
  • Our team is deeply committed to collaborating with clients, understanding their specific needs, and grasping the intricacies of their industries and market demands. At TGM, we firmly believe that packaging design and branding are inherently intertwined. Therefore, we spare no effort to ensure optimal cycle times without compromising product functionality, aesthetics, or performance.
  • With extensive expertise in estimating shrinkage rates, calculating cooling requirements, and selecting appropriate materials, our team has successfully developed various injection mold types, including multi-level stack molds, unscrewing molds, and molds with multiple actuations.
  • It is our knowledge, dedication, passion, and relentless drive to make a meaningful contribution to the world that truly sets us apart from our competitors.

Example: Mold Design Enhancements

5 Gallon Pail Molds Product Improvements

  • New cushioning rib development in the skirt beam area
  • Revisited the diamond pattern. Our study showed we improved top load by 4 to 6% instead of adding to wall thickness
