Mold Fabrication

Mould fabrication is an integral part of many manufacturing processes, including injection molding and thermoforming. At Alcami, we not only offer excellent manufacturing services, but also feature an in-house team of product and mold engineers to assist you with every step of your project production.

Molds are typically machined from high-durability metals such as hardened or pre-hardened steel, aluminum, or other metal alloys. Alcami machines exceptional molds using reliable, high-accuracy methods, including CNC machines and CAD/CAM machines

Our various machining options allow Alcami to creatively tackle any mold fabrication project with ease.

What materials can molds be made from?

Most production molds are made from high-durability metals such as the following.

Hardened or pre-hardened steel

Steel is the most expensive material option for molds, but is a preferred choice for many projects as it is more durable and lasts longer through high-stress injection processes than other metals.

Aluminium

Aluminum is a great steel alternative for many projects since it is much more affordable. In some situations, however, aluminum may not withstand the strain of high production jobs or those with narrow tolerances.

Metal alloys

Many metal alloys can also be attractive options for mold materials, depending on your project specifications. Feel free to ask our engineering team about what metal alloys could work well for your designs. Our engineering team is here to assist you in examining design strategies and providing recommendations, regardless of the materials you wish to work with.
