RD-Support has test and production facilities, injection molding and tool shop in-house

Our system offers you a proprietary micro-precision rapid tooling system which enables turn around of molded designs within 2 weeks rather than 1-2 months. The hardened steel mold tools can be used to manufacture anything from a few parts up to millions of parts. As a ISO13485:2016 certified company we can assist you with commissioning and validating the mold tools, which means that we support you with the optimal conditions for amending and rapidly optimizing your design. We have our own basic mold tools for steel inserts (MIMI-system) as well as we design and manufacture complete mold tools specified to you.

RD Support can simulate full-scale production using a high volume injection mold tool. Simulation is an effective and cost-efficient method, by which you can get the project started, produce parts in final quality and use them in tests leading to official approval, and start serial production.

We produce injection mold tools and prototypes in-house developed by our own tool technicians and toolmakers.

RD-Support provides…

  • O-series

  • Adjustment, Modifications

  • First-out-of-tool (FOT)

  • Process validation

  • Factory Acceptance Test (FAT)

 RD-Support supports you in choosing the ideal technology route which suits your unique project

 

  • If you look into Laser Ablation you have the shortest time to market and lowest cost. Surface finish will be frosted Ra>0.8. The accuracy is ±5-8µm and aspect ratio will be 2:1. With the corner radius you can achieve ≥ 20µm.

  • With Micro milling you have around 2 weeks lead time and a fairly low cost. The surface will bare milling marks Ra≥0.2. Accuracy of your design will be ±2-4µm with and aspect ratio of 10:1. Corner radius wil be ≥ 50µ.

  • Diamond Milling has a medium cost, and we can offer you a lead time in about 3 weeks. You will get a polished surface Ra<0.02. Accuracy on the design will be ±2-5µm, aspect ratio is 5:1 and the corner radius ≥25µm.

  • The Micro-EDM technology will be 3 weeks lead time and in a medium price point. Surface finish is polished Ra<0.02. The accuracy in the design features is ±2-4µm, aspect ratio will be up to 15:1 and the corner radius will reach ≥20µm.

  • With Lithography we have the longest lead time of 4-8 weeks and the highest price point. On the other hand, you will have mirror surface finish within Ra<;0.01 and an accuracy in your design which is <1µm the aspect radius is 2:1 and sharp corner radius.

DFM, development and production always take place in accordance with the RD-Support quality standards as a certified ISO13485:2016 company. This secure that your project and products are verified within relevant specifications, risk analyses and documentation.
