| "We
run our moulding machines at six to ten second cycles.
This level of operation means the die and cores become very hot
and equire rapid cooling. To help the cooling of the
cores, we make them from mould max, a copper based material.
Up until we had access to laser welding technologies we had to
remake the part which was very costly." |
"Laser welding is very useful for making alterations to the die.
Sometimes there is a change in a number on a badge that is
being moulded. Rather than machine a completely new die
form we can have the numbers welded and re-machined. It is
very accurate with no distortion to the surrounding areas.
The machine and polishing is very limited and it is a very
cost effective solution." |
"We
use laser welding by Pro-Moulds as a standard source of supply.
The quality of their workmanship is very high and their "can do,
will do, you can have it tomorrow or sooner" approach to
business has helped us many times. Pro-moulds laser
welding is used for all our welding repairs and we have never
been let down by their craftsmanshp or service." |
