SLIDESHOW: Technology Showcase, Mold Maintenance and Repair
This year marks the third edition of our Mold Maintenance and Repair supplement, so I've now named October Mold Maintenance and Repair month. Before the month gets away from us, I want to make sure you were able to read about some of the products and equipment specific to that segment of the moldmaking process.

MoldMaking Technology
We’ve heard it said that the function of a toolroom isn’t to build molds, it’s to keep a substantial number of active molds capable and available to run. And, it's all about maintenance and repair. So, as this year marks the third edition of our Mold Maintenance and Repair supplement, I've now named October Mold Maintenance and Repair Month.
Before the month gets away from us and to ensure you have been able to read about some of the products and equipment specific to that segment of the moldmaking process, I created this slideshow. Remember, a well-run preventive maintenance program can actually help you make money and these products can help you do just that.
