Aluminum Tooling in the US

Cypress Industries is a plastic injection mold maker in the US that specializes in manufacturing cost-effective custom steel and aluminum tooling in the US for injection molding plastics. Aluminum tooling is typically referred to as rapid prototype tooling. While we manufacture aluminum tooling in the US we are also able to make steel tools.

Innovative custom steel and aluminum tooling solutions such as our CAD plastic injection mold design services in Austin, Texas, our custom aluminum tooling manufacturing in the US, and custom tooling design, ensure high-quality, quick-turn solutions for our customers’ steel and aluminum tooling projects.

Cypress Industries builds tooling and molds for long and short production runs. To save time and expense many of our customers specify our in-house aluminum insert mold system for their molded parts, or decide to do small runs of machined plastics. For plastic injection molding in the US aluminum short-run rapid prototype molds are faster and are an economical solution for customers for less than 100,000 shots. But prior to production tooling

(steel tooling) the new part and product designs need to be proved out.

We design custom aluminum tooling in the US for end-users, rapid prototyping, injection molded plastics shops, plastic prototype parts and injection mold makers at our engineering facilities in Texas. This allows us to maintain the high quality of our injection mold makers design services while keeping costs low by utilizing aluminum which is easier to machine and less expensive. We also work with many U.S. design firms producing tools for them and will not sell our design services to their customers.

For customers in need of quick prototypes, for modeling and proof of design or concept, we offer rapid prototyping capabilities in our plastic injection molding factories in the US. These can be done with rapid prototype tooling, or with SLA or SLS processes in addition to machining plastics. Our rapid prototyping, SLS and custom molding and plastics machining capabilities can get our customers’ new designs in solid form in a short amount of time.

Cypress Industries can design and manufacture our clients’ custom die’s, tools and molds to their specifications, reverse engineer existing parts or produce new molds from their CAD files. Because we are one of the premier injection mold makers in the US, we are very proficient at reverse engineering many types of parts. We have many different 3D design software platforms to adapt to our customers’ systems. Digital data files and

computerized machining are used almost exclusively for tooling of custom molds.

We can manufacture steel or aluminum tools in the US that are multi-cavity molds, unscrewing molds, closure molds, hot-runner molds, and stack molds. Our facilities in the U.S. and China allow Cypress Industries to provide global aluminum tooling solutions for our customers by exporting our tooling to countries all over the world.

Cypress Industries ensures 100% satisfaction on its tools. We provide detailed drawings for customer approvals, and always provide prototypes for first article approval prior to production, or packaging and shipping the tools. Our custom tools are also designed to fit in whatever injection molding equipment our customers or their suppliers might have. We obtain those dimensions from our customers up front prior to finalizing pricing and drawings.
