Engineering and design services

The engineering and design phase is crucial for every project at DTM. Our team of expert engineers collaborates with you during this phase to understand your specific needs and goals.

Whether you’re developing new tooling, components, or custom machined parts, we use advanced design software like SOLIDWORKS and MASTERCAM to create detailed, precise designs.

Our detail-oriented approach allows us to identify and address potential issues before production begins, saving you time and money. Our engineering and design services include:

We begin by discussing your part design, production requirements, and any specific challenges you may face. This initial consultation helps us understand the full scope of your project and allows us to provide you with a tailored solution.

Our team excels in tooling design, creating molds and components that are not only efficient to produce but also durable and long-lasting. We focus on optimizing the design to reduce material waste, improve cycle times, and ensure the highest level of precision.

Using the latest versions of SOLIDWORKS and MASTERCAM, our engineers can handle everything from simple 2D designs to complex multi-axis programs. This advanced software enables us to create accurate, detailed designs that are ready for manufacturing.

Expert tooling engineering

At DTM, we believe that the best way to avoid costly rework is to address potential issues during the engineering and design stages. Our team has the expertise to identify and prevent common molding defects such as knit line areas, sink, contamination, delamination, and more. By tackling these issues upfront, we ensure that your molds and tooling components produce consistent, high-quality parts from the start.

Key aspects of our tooling engineering service include:

We carefully examine your part design to identify areas where defects are likely to occur. By addressing these issues in the design phase, we prevent them from becoming problems later in the production process.

During the assembly process, we make adjustments to ensure that the tool functions as intended. This step is essential in preventing issues like flash, which can affect the quality of your final parts.

Before we ship any tool, we conduct thorough testing to ensure that it works properly and meets all of your specifications. This final validation step gives you confidence that your tooling is ready for production.

The tooling design process

One of the key aspects of our engineering and design services is our commitment to creating tooling that is built to last. We understand that the quality of your tooling directly impacts the quality of your final products, which is why we take extra care in the design and engineering stages to ensure that every detail is perfect.

Our tooling design process includes:

After the initial design is created, we review it with you to ensure that it meets your vision and requirements. This collaborative step is crucial in aligning our goals and making any necessary adjustments before finalizing the design.

Once the design is finalized, our team conducts a thorough review to ensure that every component is designed for optimal performance and longevity. Our project manager, lead designer, and engineers all contribute to this review, making sure that nothing is overlooked.

During the manufacturing process, we strategically machine certain parts to ensure a perfect fit within your tools. This attention to detail helps us deliver tooling that not only performs well but also lasts longer, reducing the need for future repairs or replacements.

As we assemble the tool, we make any final adjustments needed to ensure that it fits and functions perfectly. Once assembly is complete, we rigorously test the tool to confirm that it meets all specifications and is ready for use.
