Aluminum mold for APSX-PIM
$375
What your process engineer actually checks
From printed prototype to molded part
We use injection molding to bridge our own printed prototypes into short runs, so install includes validated parameters for your resin and tooling guidance. The team that trains you actually molds parts — not a distributor reading a manual.

APSX-PIM Standard Aluminum Mold Specification & Ordering
- Mold Description:
- Material: 6061 Aluminum
- Manufacturing: CNC Machined (Spyder CNC)
- Dimensions: 4.8″ (W) x 6.0″ (H) x 2.0″ (D)
- Status: Supplied with alignment pins, bushings, mounting bolts, and claws pre-installed.
- Requirement: Cavities require customer machining.
- Mounting Hardware:
- Left Side: Four (4) shoulder bolts (included).
- Right Side: Claws (included).
- Note: Multiple mold orders receive only one set of claws.
- Installation & Alignment:
- Orientation: Mount the mold so its upper side is flush with Block 4’s upper side.
- Shoulder Bolt Purpose: Intentionally longer to create a small gap between the mold and nozzle plate when unclamped.
- Cooling Benefit: This gap minimizes heat transfer, keeping the mold cooler. Full contact with the nozzle plate only occurs when fully clamped.
- Alignment Check Procedure:
- Install the mold using the shoulder bolts (left) and claws (right).
- Use the machine’s manual control buttons to initiate clamping.
- HALT the machine as soon as the mold halves begin to mate.
- Pin/Bushing Note: Pins and bushings are a tight fit. Do not press by hand; rely on the machine’s clamping force for final seating.
- Additional Features:
- Temperature Sensor Port: Thread size M3 (located on the mold side).

We mold our own. Tooling and trials on request.
Need a mold built, an insert cut, or a trial run before committing? We can produce tooling and run sample shots on the actual machine so you see molded parts first. Typical tooling lead 2–4 weeks.
From production teams running Aluminum mold for APSX-PIM
Unedited feedback from teams who bought and run Aluminum mold for APSX-PIM.
We bridged a 3D-printed prototype to a 500-part run on the bench machine. Cycle times were exactly as quoted.
Asked about tooling for a small insert. An engineer walked us through it and ran a trial shot, no sales pitch.
Install included validated parameters for our resin. First parts were in spec — minimal trial-and-error.
