Tooling Design

Tooling design and manufacturing is one of  Topscom key strengths. By staffing expert tool designers, skilled tool and die makers, and precision machinists, we offer customers the best tooling solution in the industry. We provide prototype and production tooling for both plastic and metal parts.

Plastic Injection Mold Design and Fabrication
Topscom designs and fabricates plastic injection molds in manufacturing casings for all types of plastic products including printers, PC chassis, PDAs, and wireless devices. Topscom uses the following advanced CAD software tools:

• MasterCAM
• AutoCAD
• Unigraphics CAD/CAM
• ProE
• MoldFlow
• Promold

After the design validation and manufacturing process creation is complete, the process moves to pre-production where computer instructions detailing the exact tool paths, tolerance levels, and type of mill tips and machines are downloaded into the machining center. When the mold master, milled from graphite or copper blocks, adheres to the original specifications, the mold and mold base are produced through a combination of precision milling, grinding, and electro-discharge machining (EDM). Topscom has experience in working with all types of tooling materials including aluminum, unhardened and hardened steel for hand-load and cam action tools.
