A complex timer assembly program where 12 unique plastic parts had to be produced in a single family mold without sacrificing consistency, cosmetic quality, or long-run mold reliability.
The customer wanted all 12 distinct parts to run in one family mold to reduce production cost and maintain compatibility across the full mechanical assembly.
Engineers usually want a faster scan of the technical baseline before reading the full case narrative.
12-part family mold for a mechanical timer assembly program.
Fill balance, cavity consistency, cosmetic quality, hidden gating, and side-action reliability.
Moldflow support, runner sizing, flow restrictors, hidden gates, and cavity-side core pull design.
Stable part-to-part compatibility across the full assembly without repeated trial-and-error.
Jeancen treated this as a de-risking project before steel cut, not just a machining job.
We used mold flow analysis, engineered runner sizing, and custom flow restrictors to control filling sequence and cavity pressure.
We combined high-speed CNC, mirror polishing, copper electrodes, and precision EDM to deliver crisp text with premium surface quality.
We selected the best gate type by part function, including hidden submarine gates for cosmetic parts and edge gates for structural parts.
We integrated a robust cavity-side core pull mechanism so side through-holes could be formed reliably in one efficient molding process.
This project proved Jeancen’s ability to solve multiple tooling risks at once in a family mold environment where consistency, aesthetics, and assembly compatibility all mattered.
If your project involves balance, cosmetic quality, hidden gating, side action, or assembly compatibility, we can help review the tooling risk before the mold build starts.
