Childs drinking bottle
One of two new drinking bottles
HMT supplied Blow Moulding tooling for two new childrens bottles.
Smart starch cap
Two Impression unscrewing
Fully hardened tool, incorparating slides for embossed engraving. Mould tool uses fully automatic unscrewing system.
Micro Moulding
We pass the test other toolmakers failed at.
HMT was involved in a project for a new mobile phone camera. The customer had major quality problems with a tiny component they first sourced in China before asking for our help in the manufacturing of the part.
The previous toolmakers failed to produce continous quality parts, therefore letting down the supply chain. HMT was producing the small, intricate, overmoulded housing, when approached to see if we could solve the manufacturing problems with this part.
The tiny component had to be accurate within 0.01mm. the tight tolerance was important because of the 4 legs which were 0.5 x 0.04mm wide and had to fit inside our plastic housing and move freely without touching the surrounding walls.
Within four weeks we had made the tool and supplied over 10,000 parts to America, therefore getting the project back on track.
Superstore Mop
Large four impression, hot runner, hydraulic driven slide tool.
2nd 8 imp tool including slides at both ends to produce white spline. The valeda mop tool was constructed in three sections as head room height above press was restricted. The Tooling was up and running within an eight week lead time and is running 24hrs non stop.
Dragons Den
HMT slays China to win Dragons Den project
HMT is awarded contract for nine Plastic Injection Mould Tools by Steri-Spray.
Haverhill Mould And Tooling beats China on Price, Quality and Lead times yet again.
All tooling is to be completed with 1st off samples delivered within an 8 week period.
As seen on Dragons Den, Steri-Spray from cambridgeshire (www.steri-spray.com) wins backing from Theo Paphitis and Deborah Meaden. HMT helps in final product and tooling design, then sets about the task of suppling the tooling and plastic components. This large project consisted of three sizes of shower system including all the internal workings. The two biggest Mouldings being 1200mm long, the smallest 10mm.

New Investment
HMT invests in state-of-the-art Charmiles wire erosion machine.
HMT has invested in a charmiles Robofil 190. This new addition to our machining process allow us to improve on our already quick lead times, and still work within our tight machining tolerances. Wire erosion is a machining process that cuts profiles or holes with a small wire 0.1 to 0.5 mm diameter to a depth of up to 250mm. Surface finish and accuracy are of the highest standard 0.005mm and 0.3ra respectively. Machining can be un-manned allowing 24 hour processing.
The Swiss made Charmilles compliments HMT's other Charmille EDM machines giving us the full eroison package backed up the with quality and reliability that comes with Charmilles and our specialy trained staff. For full cost effecitve solutions to your machining needs, contact HMT on 01440 704520.
