Honestly, the 30.6-ton mold weight isn't something every shop can handle, it limits you to presses with at least 35,000 KN clamping force, but if you're running large automotive structural parts that's pretty much where you need to be anyway.

We've found the >HRC45 surfce hardness holds up well under high-presure alumnum flow, especially when you're pushing wall thicknesses below 3mm on complex geometries, though the real advantage is the thermal fatigue resistnce from the —it's better than most standard H13 tooling we've seen in this tonnage range.

MAGMA simulation on the flow analysis is standard for us on every custom die, we run it to catch gas porosity issues before steel, and the UG design integration means our company can adjust gating within a day or so if your part revisions come through.
For a typical automotive oil pan or transmission housing, you're looking at about 20.8 kg final part weight, and the automatic demolding system cuts cycle time by roughly 15-20% compared to manual extraction, though I should mention it's not ideal for parts with deep internal undercuts.

MOQ is usually one set for custom tooling, but we'll need your 3D CAD files and a signed NDA before we start the DFM, lead time is typically 45-60 days depending on complexity (we've had some rush orders done in 30).

Also, teh CE and SGS certs are for mold construction, not the castings themselves—you'll still need your own PPAP documentation for the final parts, just something to keep in mind for your APQP submission.
That clamping force lets us handle large, complex automotive parts up to about 20.8 kg each. It’s the force that keeps the mold closed during injection, so you get consistent, high-density castings without flash or defects.
Absolutely, we customize molds to your exact part geometry and specs. Our engineers use MAGMA for flow and solidification simulation and UG for 3D modeling, so we can optimize the design before cutting any steel.
With proper care—like regular cleaning and lubrication of the demolding system, plus periodic heat treatment checks—you’ll easily get past a million shots. The >HRC45 surface hardness helps it resist wear over that long run.
We’re ISO9001, CE, and SGS certified, and yes, we include SGS inspection reports with each mold delivery. That covers material composition, hardness, and dimensional checks to match your tolerance requirements.
Lead time is usually 30–45 days from design approval, depending on complexity. MOQ is one set of molds, since each one is custom-built for your automotive application. We can also handle high-volume production with our 50T to 7000T press capacity.
