Mold Flow Analysis
What is Mold Flow Analysis?
Mold flow analysis uses simulation software to predict how molten plastic will fill a mold cavity during the injection molding process. It also provides valuable insight into part cooling behavior and helps optimize processing parameters before any steel is cut.
While there are other ways to evaluate mold performance, running a digital analysis is faster, more cost-effective, and far more efficient than physically building a mold, shooting sample parts, and iterating on steel modifications.
By using mold flow early in the design phase, product developers and engineers can prevent costly defects like short shots, sink, and warpage. This proactive approach leads to higher-quality molded parts, shorter lead times, and reduced overall tooling and production costs.
Mold makers and injection molding teams alike benefit from reviewing mold flow results as it creates alignment, highlights potential issues, and helps everyone make smarter tooling decisions.

Complete Mold Flow Analysis Services
Optimize your part design and molding process before cutting steel
We provide a mold flow analysis that will help you make smarter decisions early in the design phase that reduces risk, improves part quality, and cuts down on costly mold changes later.
Our mold flow analysis deliver real, mold-maker-level insight into how the plastic will flow, pack, cool, and warp inside the mold.
We evaluate critical aspects such as filling, packing, V/P switchover, air traps, weld lines, sink, and warpage, helping define a stable molding process window before production ever begins.
By combining simulation results with practical mold design experience, we help identify potential issues in gate placement, wall thickness, venting, and cooling layout before tooling is built.
Mold flow analysis supports better product design decisions, improving part performance, dimensional stability, and manufacturability. It also gives everyone more confidence that the mold design and process setup will deliver consistent, repeatable results from the first shot to full production.
Whether you’re validating a new product design, reviewing an existing product design, or troubleshooting production, we can provide accurate and affordable mold flow analysis with professional feedback, not just a PowerPoint left for you to decipher.
