Precision Moldmakers for the Plastics injection industry
Get the Most from Your Mold
The price you pay for your mold doesn't determine its real value. In high-production environments, several other factors besides price determine if you are getting the most from your mold.
- Rapid time-to-market - short product life cycles demand that tools go into production quickly
- Readiness - How long it takes to fine-tune a new tool for production.
- Runability - How smoothly, easily, and quickly the tool ultimately runs
- Responsiveness - if there is a problem, how quickly the moldmaker reacts
- Reliability - How long the tool runs before routine maintenance is necessary
- Responsibility - how long the toolmaker accepts responsibility for tools after delivery
Each of the factors has a dramatic impact on the true cost of a tool. Over their lifetime, tools that arrive quickly, run smoothly, and require less maintenance are the least expensive to own. By that definition, Apollo Tool Company has been giving customers the most from their molds since 1973.
