Molded Parts - Von Roll

4 Molded Parts
Tool Design
With our many years of experience of tool development, we can offer the best solution
even for the most complex and demanding design requirements. Depending on the
nature of the task, the use of shim tools or slide tools may be advisable. These will be
designed using CAD technology as part of the component development process.
The tool design will be sent to an external manufacturer in the form of 3D data. Von Roll
accompanies the creation of a new tool from the in-house design right through to the
successful launch of serial manufacturing by our production department and beyond.

We are also happy to plan and execute the adaptation of third-party tools which may
have been in use for other manufacturing procedures.
