Dongguan, China · Manufacturing mold bases since 2015
Custom mold bases, machined to your drawing in Dongguan, China,usually shipped in 7–10 days.
Custom non-standard mold frames, machined plates and special structures to your drawing — plus standard plastic mold bases from our own patterns. Machined in our own CNC shop, not resold through a trading company.
7–10 days on most mold bases, order to shipment
2,000+ sets per month from our full in-house CNC capacity
1 set MOQ — plates are never split, small runs are welcome
Three things decide whether your mold project ships on time
Delivery reliability, throughput, and what you actually pay. Those are the three things we built the company around.
01
Your deadline is the schedule
Most mold bases ship in 7–10 days from order confirmation. Rush jobs are quoted with a fixed date, not a range you have to pad.

02
Volume does not break the date
Capacity is in our own building. When your program scales up, the parts stay on our machines and the schedule stays yours.

Product lines
Mold bases, mold frames and machined plates
Fourteen product families. Custom non-standard frames, plates and special structures are machined to your drawing; standard patterns ship fast from our own production.
Steel grades we machine most often — confirm your grade with the RFQ:
Do not see your part? If it is a mold base, a mold frame or a machined steel plate, send the drawing — we will tell you plainly whether we can make it.
Shopping in British English? The same parts are listed as mould base — same drawings, same tolerances.
A mold base that is out of tolerance costs you a rework cycle in your own shop. So every mold base is measured on a coordinate measuring machine before it leaves the building, and the reading goes out with the shipment.
Square through-openings and what a wire-cut EDM drawing has to settle now join the workshop notes, alongside spare parts and the records a first order should leave, parting-line venting, sealing lands and continuous air paths. Short, practical pieces on steel grades, hardness and heat treatment, tolerances, product lines, plate sizes, pocket layouts, guide systems, cooling circuits, ejection, side actions, hole-making, dowel pins and thread callouts, the press interface, drawing revisions and what a drawing settles before release, deep pockets and high cores, counterbore and thread depth and the steel left under a tapped hole, machining, large plates, cutters, repeat orders, sourcing, quotations and what a quoted price is tied to, payment and order dates, delivery terms, setup, datum and flatness, plate thicknesses, the load path under the core and support pillars, steel grade substitution and what a material callout delegates, the difference between a die casting and an injection frame, two-color and double-shot registration between two stations, die sets and what a press asks of the frame, complete builds and the four interfaces between a frame and its inserts, lifting points and hoist ring threads, who owns the plate list when a brand, a toolmaker and a base shop share one drawing, thermal growth and cold versus running fits, curved parting lines and contact bands on complex surface bases, wire-cut apertures, start holes, slug retention and the datum face for an opening, inspection, lead time, packing and what ships in a crate — the questions that come up before an order. New notes are added most weeks.
A window that goes right through a plate has no floor and no perfectly sharp corner. What a wire-cut EDM drawing has to settle before the wire is threaded.
A worn guide bush has to fit a bore already in your press. Why set numbers, revision letters, measured values and a hardware list belong on the first purchase order.
A vent is a continuous air path, not a generic groove. What the sealing land, vent break, relief channel and clear exit each do, and how the base and insert work divide.
The table below is what buyers and mold designers normally ask before sending a drawing. Terms are stated up front so your purchasing team can approve without a second round of emails.
Specifications apply to standard and custom mold base work. Confirm any special requirement with your RFQ.
Product range
Mold base / mold frame (standard and custom non-standard), die casting mold frame, die set, large machined plates, mold steel
Machining
CNC milling — rough and finish machining in-house
Tolerance
±0.02 mm on fitting and ground features — mold pockets, guide-pillar bores, guide-bushing bores, shut-off faces, plate parallelism. General non-fitting dimensions: 0.3 mm. Above 600 mm the tolerance is agreed case by case — contact us with the drawing. We confirm the figure we will hold before quoting, so there is no dispute at inspection.
Minimum order
1 set — mold base plates are not split, so small runs can be accepted
Lead time
7–10 days for most mold bases, order to shipment. Complex or very large work is quoted with a firm date before we start.
Packing
Film-wrapped and packed in wooden cases, suitable for container loading
Payment
50% deposit, 50% before shipment. Credit terms are not offered to new customers.
Quotation
FOB China basis; price returned against your drawing, usually within one business day

More than 60% of the mold bases we have built in recent years go into interior and structural parts for new-energy vehicles above RMB 200,000 — and into structural parts for the flagship models of leading telecom equipment makers.
On high-gloss, grained and thin-wall deep-cavity work, we have built up steady process know-how on parallelism and surface consistency.
Request a quotation
Give us the drawing and the numbers — we will give you a price and a date
Fill in what you know. The more of these fields you complete, the closer the first quotation will be — no back-and-forth to establish basic facts.
Seven days from order confirmation to shipment for most mold bases. Complex or very large work is quoted with a firm date instead of a range, and that date is fixed before we start machining.
What tolerance can you hold on a mold base?
±0.02 mm on fitting and ground features — mold pockets, guide-pillar bores, guide-bushing bores, shut-off faces and plate parallelism. Ground working faces are flat and parallel to ±0.02 mm, datum faces square to ±0.02 mm, and ground surfaces finish to Ra 0.8 µm. Non-fitting dimensions are held to 0.3 mm. Above 600 mm the tolerance is agreed case by case — contact us with the drawing. Tell us the tolerance on your drawing and we confirm the figure we will hold before quoting.
What is the minimum order quantity?
One set. Mold base plates are matched, so we do not split a set — but a single set is a normal order for us, not an exception.
Can you machine to my drawing?
Yes. Send DWG, DXF, STEP, IGES or PDF, or even a clear photo of the print. Tell us the steel grade, quantity and target date and we will come back with a price and a delivery date.
