Parts & tooling for powder manufacturing
In powder-metal manufacturing, tooling surfaces play a critical role in product quality. Subtle variations in die polishing can cause powder pull-out, leading to defects, downtime, and the need to repolish tools repeatedly. Surface Designer identifies surface features that control powder flow and tooling performance, enabling manufacturers to polish tools with precision rather than guesswork.
The Old Way
Polishing based on best practices and experience.
- Polish molds using traditional techniques
- Run the press and discover defects
- Repolish molds and repeat the cycle
Result
Inconsistent tooling performance, scrap, and lost production time.
The Surface Designer Approach
Polishing guided by performance-driven surface metrics.
- Polish molds with surface intelligence
- Adjust the process with real-time feedback
- Run production with fewer defects
Result
Higher yields, less downtime, and more reliable tooling performance.
