LOW COST STYLE TOOLING ECLIPSE TOOL & DIE REQUESTED BY THEIR CUSTOMER TO

PROPOSE ALTERNATE STYLE TOOLING TO REDUCE COSTS FOR A LOW VOLUME SET OF TOOLS THAT WOULD RUN IN MEXICO LOCATION

Eclipse proposed using the Global Die Standards that we have developed – details are on our web site at www.eclipsetd.com

This proved to be a substantial savings based on the size of these tools

Eclipse has learned that these standards fit well into larger tools that have a lot of trim edges

Casting construction were used as much as possible to eliminate g pmultiple layers of plate steel for different working heights in the die

Castings take 4 – 6 weeks to be delivered. This must be taken into consideration when looking at the program timing
