'Die spotting press intruduction helped mould maker to shorten total mold manufacturing lead-time - to 30 days for simpler tools and 60 to 65 days on larger, more complex tools. ' Purchasing from a local die spotting press manufacturing company - CMTI - a 2500kN die spotting press at the end of last year proved to be a right investment decision taken by Dukheung Engineering's management. Before the introduction of the press, all molds designed and manufactured in Dukheung Engineering had to be sent out for spotting to a spotting service outsourcing company.

This not only cost the company much, but also, as the supplier was not using its presses only for our molds, it was consuming 4 - 5 days before the mold was back in house.

Now, apart from other advantages that 180 degree tilting bolster die spotting press gives, like i.e safe for mold working on it, Dukheung Engineering is able to deliver to its customers with tools at least 3 - 5 days faster than before.

The total lead-time Dukheung Engineering are able to achieve now for smaller and less complex shaped parts tooling was reduced to 30 days and for the largest in weight and demanding much work on it molds - 60 to 65 days.
