About epoxy tooling resin

Methods of rapid tooling such as our epoxy tooling resins show that moulds can be achieved quicker and at a much lower cost. Decisive is a tooling material which is easy to use and which will produce tooling to fulfil all the requirements of injection moulding.

Epoxy tooling resin is ideally suited to our 100 KSA semi automatic moulding machine. Our epoxy tooling resin makes possible the manufacture of quick, economically acceptable injection moulds and quality parts.

Epoxy tooling applications:

  • large and small injection moulds
  • wax injection moulds
  • press moulds
  • shoe sole injection moulds
