Aluminum alloys coupled with developments in CNC machining, offer numerous mold solutions to those looking for quick turn around or low volume tooling solutions. Although Harbec has been cutting aluminum for years, our refined process for mold making allows us to fabricate molds that; provide good dimensional tolerance, reach the required life span, and meet necessary cosmetic requirements. When small quantity is desired, basic unit insert sets are manufactured. For more demanding requirements, hybrid molds can be made which combine aluminum, alloys, steel, and sintered components. Mechanical slides can be added to allow automatic molding. Mold bases and multiple cavity tools are often incorporated. Surface treatments can further enhance the operation of these tools. Because of our versatility, production quality parts are produced to meet our customers varying requirements.
