Quick Turn Injection Molding Tolerances

Parameter Specification
General Dimensional Tolerances ±0.005”–0.010” (±0.13–0.25 mm), depending on material and part geometry
Wall Thickness Tolerance ±0.004” (±0.10 mm) typical; varies based on flow length and plastic type
Hole Diameter ±0.005” (±0.13 mm); may require post-machining for tighter fits
Shrinkage Compensation 0.4%–2.5%, depending on resin; draft and shrink adjustments are factored into mold design
Flatness ±0.005” per inch (±0.127 mm/in), influenced by cooling rate, wall thickness, and part design
Draft Angle Minimum 1° recommended; 2°–3° preferred for rapid mold release and faster turnaround
Insert Fit Tolerance ±0.003”–0.006” (±0.076–0.15 mm) when using metal inserts manually or during molding
Surface Finish (As Molded) SPI-C1 (Ra 0.8–1.2 μm / 32–48 μin) standard; additional finishes may not be available in quick-turn setups

Quick Turn Injection Molding by Elite Mold Tech

In today’s fast-paced product development landscape, speed to market is everything. Whether you’re refining a prototype, launching a new product, or ramping up short-run production, waiting weeks or months for molds and parts simply isn’t an option.

That’s where Quick Turn Injection Molding from Elite Mold Tech delivers a competitive edge. We combine high-speed mold fabrication with efficient low- to mid-volume molding to help you go from design to delivered parts in as little as 7–15 business days.

What Is Quick Turn Injection Molding?

Quick turn injection molding is a streamlined manufacturing process designed for rapid tooling and part production. It utilizes aluminum or hybrid molds instead of hardened steel to significantly reduce lead times and upfront costs.

This service is ideal for:

  • Functional prototyping
  • Bridge tooling (before high-volume production)
  • Pilot runs and pre-production validation
  • Low-volume manufacturing (up to 10,000 parts)

At Elite Mold Tech, we’ve optimized every stage from DFM review and mold design to sampling and final production to eliminate delays without compromising quality.

Why Choose Quick Turn Molding?

Speed without Sacrificing Accuracy. Our quick turn approach ensures you get dimensionally precise, production-grade plastic parts in days not weeks or months.

Here’s what sets our service apart:

  • Fast mold production: typically in under 10 business days
  • Rapid iterations: ideal for testing and refining designs
  • Wide material selection: ABS, PC, PP, POM, PA (with/without glass), and more
  • Tight tolerances: comparable to traditional injection molding
  • Cost-effective: reduced tooling costs for low to mid-volume runs

Our Quick Turn Molding Process: Fast, Focused, and Reliable

  1. Design Review (DFM)
    We analyze your part design for meltability, recommend changes if needed, and optimize it for quick production.
  2. Tooling
    Aluminum or hybrid steel molds are fabricated in-house with precision CNC machining. Inserts and interchangeable cavities allow flexibility.
  3. Sampling
    A T1 sample is produced and sent for your review before full production begins. Modifications (if any) are quickly implemented.
  4. Production & Delivery
    Once approved, we mold your parts using high-quality thermoplastics and deliver them on time.

Applications of Quick Turn Injection Molding

Quick turn molding serves a wide variety of industries:

  • Medical devices – housings, clips, test fixtures
  • Consumer electronics – enclosures, buttons, mounts
  • Automotive – small functional parts, connectors
  • Industrial components – gears, covers, handles
  • Startup prototypes – short-run production for MVPs

Whether you need 50 parts or 5,000, we scale to match your needs without long delays or bloated budgets.
