Case studies
EV Battery Cell Spacer Design: An Application Study in Insulation and Molded Fit
An illustrative engineering study of EV battery cell spacer design: material evidence, insulation boundaries, checked tolerance examples, molded-fit validation and release records.
Polypropylene Living Hinge Design: An Application Study in Mold Flow and Fatigue Testing
An illustrative engineering study for polypropylene living hinge design, covering material selection, hinge geometry, gate and flow analysis, and a reproducible fatigue test plan.
Threaded Insert Pull-Out Strength: An Application Study for Injection-Molded Housings
An illustrative engineering study for defining, testing, and diagnosing threaded insert pull-out strength in injection-molded plastic housings.
One-Sided Burr Case Study: 7 Essential Checks for a Safe Fix
An illustrative engineering case study showing how asymmetric punch-to-die clearance can be investigated without destroying evidence through premature regrinding.
Die Spare Parts Case Study: The Best Way to Cut Press Downtime by 63%
A stamping plant running 40 progressive dies from several toolmakers lost dozens of press hours a month waiting for broken punches and inserts. A die spare...
Sensor Housing Case Study: Fixing a 4% Leak Failure Rate With Insert Molding
An automotive sensor housing with insert-molded terminals was failing leak tests after thermal shock. Failure analysis, a redesigned lead frame, a new gate and a heated,...
LSR Mold Case Study: 32-Cavity Medical Check Valve Success Story
A medical device OEM was hand-trimming flash from a silicone check valve made in an 8-cavity tool. Our 32-cavity cold runner LSR mold removed the trimming,...
Bipolar Plate Stamping Case Study: 3 Forming Problems We Solved in 0.1 mm Steel
A fuel cell stack developer's metallic bipolar plate was cracking at the channel corners and failing flatness. A two-stage forming die, new radii and a calibrated...
Terminal Stamping Case Study: A 1,200 SPM Progressive Die Success Story
An automotive connector maker needed four times the output from its terminal stamping line and a capable process for PPAP. This is how our die team...
