1 - Q.
What is dip moulding?
A.
It is a service that allows for the manufacture of flexible and semi-rigid
mouldings
in vinyl (PVC)with
very low cost tooling and is a viable alternative
to
injection, roto, compression and blow moulding.
2 - Q. What are typical
costs for developing a dip moulding item?
A.
Tooling for dip moulding is the least expensive of
all the plastic moulding
processes.
Typical full production tooling costs are in
the hundreds of
pounds
not thousands. Prototype tools and samples often
cost less than £150.00
3 - Q. How long does it
take to develop a concept into a finished moulding?
A.
Usually 10 working days or less are required for manufacture
of a
prototype
tool and samples. On receipt of sample approval
a further 10
working
days or less are required for manufacture of
full production tooling.
