Accelerating Success of Healthcare Innovators through Pilot Molding

 

When it comes to product and tooling design and development for Pharma, Diagnostic and MedTech applications, you need a partner with the right industry and technical expertise to help you succeed, reduce risk and control costs. That’s why we use our Fast-Tracking Tooling concept to accelerate timelines while ensuring quality – before you invest in full production tooling.

Our multi-step development process delivers healthcare pilot mold programs that apply key insights from the ESI and DFM process without delaying your timeline. Our modular Fast-Track Tooling approach uses readily available assets customized to meet your tooling needs. At the end of the process, you walk away with critical knowledge to transition to your production tools and plastics manufacturing processes.

Fast-Track Tooling Concept Mitigates Risks, Accelerates Success

Get to Market Faster With Our Modular Healthcare Pilot Mold Concept

Our Fast-Track Tooling concept offers an early, cost-effective way to understand key aspects of your injection molding process, including shrinkage, tolerances and part quality, before building production molds.

We start with off-the-shelf mold design components and mold bases, along with standard functional elements and hot runners for one-, two- and four-cavity designs. This supports high-precision, multi-cavity tooling and enables advanced concepts such as servo, two-stage, unscrewing, split molds, stripper systems and more.

This first-phase production concept speeds timelines and improves efficiency by allowing tooling designs to be developed and refined at a fraction of the cost of full production tooling. Early learning helps teams move forward with greater confidence and supports a smooth transition into high-volume production.

By reducing risk early in the process, Fast-Track Tooling helps avoid unexpected costs and delays that often occur during production tooling development and ramp-up. This approach supports strong overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) from your high-volume medical device production molds.

Global Tooling Expertise that Accelerates Fast-Track Programs

MGS’ decades of experience in mold design, development and production help speed timelines and manage costs through innovative concepts like Fast-Track Tooling. Our global tooling facilities in North America and Europe operate to shared standards, allowing Fast-Track Tooling programs to be delivered where our customers operate.

3D Additive Manufacturing Options

As part of our portfolio of Comprehensive Process Simulation Services, we offer prototype part production using a range of 3D Additive Manufacturing options. This helps teams evaluate plastic parts early, reduce risk and make informed decisions across the product lifecycle. This is another example of the innovation you can expect from MGS.
