Our Mold Repair Process

Our Mold Repair Process

Our Mold Repair Process

When a mold requires repair, Tops Precision follows a structured and transparent workflow to ensure accuracy, كفاءة, and quality restoration.

خطوة 1: Initial Problem Identification

The repair process begins when an issue is identified—either by our production team during regular maintenance or by customers who notice part defects or operational inconsistencies.
We immediately notify the customer, document the problem with detailed images, and provide a preliminary assessment.

For customers outside our facility, we also accept molds from other manufacturers, accompanied by a report or instructions describing the problem.

خطوة 2: Inspection and Root Cause Analysis

Once received, our toolmakers carefully open and disassemble the mold to evaluate all functional components—such as cores, التجاويف, الشرائح, دبابيس القاذف, and cooling lines.
We analyze the root cause of the issue, which may include:

Metal fatigue or wear from prolonged use

Corrosion in cooling channels

Misalignment due to improper clamping

Cracks or parting line damage

This diagnostic phase ensures that we address not just the visible damage but the underlying causes as well.

خطوة 3: Proposal and Cost Estimate

After our analysis, we prepare a detailed proposal that outlines:

Recommended repair procedures

Replacement components (إذا لزم الأمر)

Estimated cost and lead time

Optional performance improvements

This proposal is shared with the customer for review. We always ensure full transparency before any work begins.

خطوة 4: Customer Approval and Repair Execution

Once the customer approves the proposal and necessary paperwork is completed, our skilled technicians proceed with the repair.
Typical repair work includes:

Welding and re-machining worn surfaces

Replacing broken or worn inserts and pins

Reworking damaged shut-offs or gate areas

Cleaning and polishing to restore mold finish

All repairs are performed with precision to OEM standards or better, ensuring that the mold returns to production-ready condition.

خطوة 5: Quality Verification and Testing

Before returning the mold to the customer, we perform test runs and dimensional inspections to verify performance.
Our goal is to ensure the mold produces parts with consistent dimensions, جودة السطح, and cycle times equivalent to or better than its original condition.
