Mould Design

MOULD DESIGN AND SIMULATION
Micro Systems has decades of experience in precision medical and life science tooling. Our in-house design team uses Siemens NX 3D CAD to deliver efficient, DfM-led designs — from single-cavity prototypes to 32-cavity moulds for high-volume production. Advanced 3D Moldflow analysis predicts cooling times, shrinkage, and warpage to optimise cycle times and ensure consistent part quality.

DESIGNED FOR LONG MOULD LIFE
Micro Systems successfully designs and manufactures multiple 16 and 32 Cavity injection moulds for the Medical Device industry, running between 3.5 and 5 seconds for 40 million cycles between major refurbishment, through the attention to detail at the design stage for ease of maintenance, steel selection and specialist coatings.
QUICK MOULD CHANGE DESIGN
Micro Systems develops a quick change system for fast cycling medical caps, which allows very short changeover for alternative logos, and for completely different diameters, without the need to remove the Valve Gate Hot Runner System.
