As a manufacturer of custom tooling, A&M Tool Inc. use a combination of CAD/CAM software to rapidly address and document the design and engineering process. We are able to electronically import almost all computer designed files. Our molds are designed to best utilize our machine tools. Direct communication with customers ensures that design and manufacturing are integrated into a seamless process, allowing us to produce a quality tool in a reduced time. Shared knowledge in the shop allows each employee to maximize their potential as we continually upgrade our equipment and software, ensuring that our use of latest technology is supported by a qualified team of precision machine and software suppliers.

Mold Flow Analysis

Moldflow allows us to create and simulate plastic flow through single cavity, multi-cavity and family molds. We can optimize gate type, size and location as well as runner layout, size and cross-sectional shape. Analysis results include cycle time, clamp tonnage, and shot size, all of which help the design-to-manufacturing team size the injection molding machine, minimize cycle times and reduce manufacturing waste. Moldflow allows us to simulate most phases of the injection molding process and evaluate molded part performance and cooling circuit design.
