Production Tool Builds: Tailored Solutions, Global Options

Cutting-Edge Tooling Solutions

At Decatur Mold, we can build quality production tooling to meet any customer requirements. We have a full team dedicated to production tool building, including project managers, designers, machinists and toolmakers.

The team has access to a full range of state-of-the-art CAD/CAM software and production equipment.  With these capabilities, there are no features—shapes, geometries, surface textures, and heat treatments—that we cannot accommodate.  Our new Technology Center expansion has allowed us to increase our capacity for building domestic tools, as well increase our productivity and the accuracy of our work.

We also understand your need to balance quality and cost. To help facilitate production tool building on all budgets, we offer three different build options: fully domestic production, offshore production by our trusted partner in Shenzhen, China, or a hybrid China-U.S. production.

At Decatur Mold, we pride ourselves on being the tooling experts. Whether you know exactly what you want or need some guidance along the way, we want to be your trusted partner for the next project!

Decatur Mold Overseas Option

While we would love every tool to be built in our North Vernon, Indiana facility, we understand that not every project has the budget for a domestic tool build. By offering both Hybrid and China builds for our customers, we are able to provide more options to meet your needs.

However, just because some tools are built offshore doesn’t mean we stand behind them any less. Decatur Mold has built strong relationships with the best shops in Shenzen for the last 20 years. We guarantee the quality of the molds built there and ensure nothing leaves until the customer’s needs are met. We also provide a final tool inspection, cleaning, and sample at our domestic facility.

We feel our procedure for producing tools overseas reduces uncertainty for our customers. Let us handle the details for you and reduce the effort and uncertainty in purchasing offshore tooling.
