MOLD COOLING

DME TruCool ™ Solutions The DME TruCool ™ team utilizes Moldflow ™ insight software for our analysis processes. A baseline analysis will be run to determine where the need for TruCool ™ inserts would be, design conformal channels and inserts into the model, followed by a comparative analysis to confirm expected results. Analysis results will be provided for review in an easy to understand presentation or as a 3-D viewer file when requested. DME works with OEM, production facility, tool makers and a variety of other companies looking to improve product quality, and efficiency all while reducing cost. TruCool inserts qualify for a two (2) year/one (1) million shot warranty¹ and are guaranteed meet our analysis².

DME TruCool ™ Conformal Cooling is a Revolutionary Technology TruCool ™ addresses the thermal management of the injection molding process. Through the use of metal 3D printing, we manufacture inserts, slides, lifters and more, that can now contain cooling channels previously unimaginable. This technology has been proven over several years of research and development all the while pushing the limits of plastic injection molding. In existing molds, TruCool ™ inserts are typically able to reduce overall cycle time by an average of 25%, reduce warpage by nearly 35%, improves part quality through reduced thermal stress which results in material savings with less scrap and less press time while obtaining the same E.A.U. (Estimated Annual Usage ) in comparison to conventional means. Typical R.O.I. (return on investment) is less than 3 months. Should TruCool ™ inserts be considered at the lead of a project, additional benefits would include a complete thermal control of the mold, additional part design and engineering flexibility, a reduced cavity count which directly relates to a smaller tool and a smaller press ultimately reducing overall cost while again, still producing the same E.A.U. as well as a superior end user product.

On the design side , DME uses Siemens NX CAD software. With DME's extensive tooling background, we not only offer design work for our TruCool ™ conformal cooling line of products, but we are additionally able to provide full mold design consultation. The Design Team is always available to support our clients starting at the initial stages of development, to supplying the mold base (through our manufacturing department), and everything in between. This sets customers at ease knowing they have over seven decades of engineering behind them. Companies of any size and global location can all benefit from the mold technology knowledge DME has developed. On the heating side of the process with hot runner manifolds and even conformal heating channels for dynamic thermal cycling, all the way to the cooling of the mold, we can help reduce delta on your part an increase the efficiency of your mold from beginning to end.

1. Annual maintenance required.

2. When all necessary information is provided by customer, failure would apply to a discount on future projects, requires DME review of mold in operation prior to and after conformal modification.
