It is a known fact that proper maintenance on equipment can mean the difference between profit and loss for any company. The documentation and measurement of changes, to dies and molds, over time can demonstrate significant knowledge about the care they are receiving and thus predicating their life and productivity. Being able to document the current condition of dies and molds then benchmarking the changes over time can deliver huge savings by heading off costly repairs to the equipment before it is too late.

Many times molds and dies are owned by the owner of the product for which it manufactures. The molds and dies are then “run” by a custom manufacturer. The maintenance points can easily slip past the scheduled “PM” time, often allowing the lack of proper lubrication to shorten the life of these tools. More importantly with out taking the time to critically view the current condition of the tools and comparing the changes over time, one has no way of evaluating the true expected life of the tool. Planned inspection by highly experienced Tool and Die Makers can identify a small problem early in its development and help head off big issues later.
