Injection moulding

Upper Prototype delivers fast and precise injection molding solutions tailored for AI vision devices, EV power electronics, and smart consumer products. Whether you need prototype tooling or low-volume molding, our experienced engineers help you accelerate your design-to-production process.

We specialize in:

• Rapid tooling with aluminum or soft-steel molds for small runs

• Plastic injection molding for engineering-grade materials (ABS, PC, PA, PBT, TPU)

• Mold design optimization with full DFM (Design for Manufacturability) feedback

• Surface finishing options such as texture, painting, laser marking, and UV coating

Our integrated workflow combines CNC machining, rapid tooling, and injection molding to help hardware engineers move quickly from functional prototype to pilot production.

Why Choose US

🔹 Fast quoting & DFM feedback within 24 hours
🔹 Mold lead time as short as 7–10 days
🔹 Support for engineering validation, pilot runs, and bridge production
🔹 Experience in AI hardware, EV, 3C electronics, and industrial optics

Advantages

1. Accelerated Time-to-Market
   Rapid tooling enables functional plastic parts within days, allowing design teams to test, validate, and iterate faster before full production.

2. Cost-Effective for Small Batches
   Aluminum or soft-steel molds reduce tooling cost dramatically — ideal for pilot runs or engineering builds between 50–5,000 pcs.

3. High Repeatability & Dimensional Precision
   Compared to 3D printing or CNC machining, injection molding delivers consistent tolerances and stable mechanical properties, ensuring production-level quality.

4. Material Versatility
   Compatible with a wide range of thermoplastics — ABS, PC, PMMA, PBT, PA, TPU, TPE — enabling precise balance between durability, heat resistance, and aesthetics.

5. Production-Ready Surface Quality
   Offers near-final surface textures, gloss, or coatings suitable for consumer-facing housings or industrial electronics enclosures.

6. Integrated Engineering Support
   Upper Prototype provides DFM (Design for Manufacturability) analysis, mold flow review, and material guidance to help you minimize design risks and ensure smooth molding performance.
