Typical cycles for different mold types:
Simple engineering-grade plastic molds: Such as molds for roadbed barriers or precast concrete components; the standard customization cycle is just 3 days, allowing for rapid delivery and deployment in road construction projects.


Standard consumer/industrial plastic molds: Such as molds for ABS, PP, or PC housings used in home appliances, automotive parts, and daily necessities; the standard customization cycle ranges from 5 to 20 days, suitable for mass production requirements involving multi-cavity designs and moderate precision.


Complex precision molds:High-precision molds incorporating special processes-such as side-action core pulling, multi-color injection molding, high-gloss mirror finishes, or specialized textured surfaces; the overall cycle, from design to final successful mold trial, typically takes 4–6 weeks or even longer.
