- 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.
- 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
- 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.
