The development of the mold industry in China, especially plastic molds, is misbalanced compared to the West. There are few highly qualified mold companies but many mid- or low-level companies. In general, the cost of molds in China is still very competitive compared with more developed countries. In the auto industry for example, mold development in China costs about half that of Europe or the US, so there´s still an advantage to carrying out mold development in China. ECONE has a large range of mold suppliers, from low to high level, so we can find the best match for our customers. We also offer the option of sharing the product´s molds across different vendors in order to control cost while guaranteeing quality and timing. We work with each of our suppliers to find the best solution to achieve LEAN mold making.

​

Nowadays, more than 70% of all products require molds. Molds are considered the mother of production, because the quality and life of the mold greatly affects the quality and life of production. Our engineers apply various methods to verify each mold, define its material and simulate its movement and lifetime.

​

Our engineers are experts in molds and machinery. We use the latest software to support our work, including CATIA, MOLDFLOW, Solid Edge, AUTOCAD, Top Solid and more.
