Process discipline
Mould setup sheets are photographed, signed and stored with the work order so night shift runs match day shift.
Injection molding · Rochester, New York
Tools steel-safe and cycles tuned before production.
Gaugepoint Molding builds aluminum and steel tools, runs scientific molding studies, then produces millions of parts for medical and consumer OEMs who need cavity pressure data with every startup. We do not ship until the process window is documented and your quality engineer signs the run-at-rate report.
We reply within one business day on Midwest US working days.
Moulding built for repeat orders
Gaugepoint Molding keeps tooling, recipes and programs on file so your second run does not start from zero. Every mould setup sheet is signed before the press cycles.
Quality paperwork
Cavity-pressure traces, retain shots and inspection sheets reference your tool number before release.
Honest capacity
When presses are full we say so and propose partial cavity runs instead of slipping dates quietly.

Scope and spec
We confirm resin grade, cavitation and critical dimensions before quoting so first shots match your drawing.
- 02
Quote and sample
Tooling deposits, T1 dates and any texture or gate changes are agreed in writing before steel is cut.
- 03
Production
Moulders run with documented barrel profiles; supervisors sign hourly cavity checks where the spec demands it.
- 04
Ship or handover
Packing lists include cavity numbers, resin lot codes and dimensional reports when your quality team asks for them.

Tooling partners who stayed
“Gaugepoint sent cavity pressure curves with the first article, not after we asked.”
“Cavity pressure traces from their trial run became our default setup sheet for every re-order.”
Questions from tooling engineers
Can we audit the site?
Yes. Book a moulding visit and we will walk the press and auxiliary line assigned to your tool.
Will you sign our moulding quality agreement?
We review and sign customer moulding quality agreements when SPC and PPAP expectations align.
How do you control tooling changes?
Tooling ECOs are logged, moulders retrained and no production shot runs until tooling engineering approves.
