Mold Class Glossary
| Name | Cycles | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|---|
Name Class 105 tool | Cycles Under 500 | Description Prototype only. This mold will be constructed in the least expensive manner possible to produce a very limited quantity of prototype parts. Also known as a Class V tool. | Example A one-and-done market test of 100 molded units. |
Name Class 104 tool | Cycles Under 100,000 | Description Low production mold. Use only for limited production preferably with non-abrasive materials. Low to moderate price range. Also known as a Class IV tool. | Example Aluminum or MUD tooling, SPI B-3 finish, hand-loaded cores and limited re-runs. |
Name Class 103 tool | Cycles Under 500,000 | Description Medium production mold. This is a very popular mold for low to medium production needs. Most common price range. Also known as a Class III tool. | Example Aluminum or steel tooling, automated lifts or slides, multiple re-runs with batches between 1,000-5,000 units. |
Name Class 102 tool | Cycles Under 1,000,000 | Description Medium to high production, good for abrasive materials and/or parts requiring close tolerance. This is a high quality, fairly high priced mold. Also known as a Class II tool. | Example Steel tooling with an SPI A-2 finish, automated slides, scheduled production cycles. |
Name Class 101 tool | Cycles Over 1,000,000 | Description Built for extremely high production. This is the highest-priced mold and is made with only the highest quality materials. Also known as a Class I tool. | Example Multiple-cavity steel tooling with full automation and overnight production workcenters for dedicated part manufacturing. |
The injection molding industry often defines molds by their class. This goes from Class 105, a prototype mold (e.g., a 100 piece one-and-done market test), to Class 101, which is built for extremely high production (e.g., making tens-of-millions contact lens cases). Xometry typically produces Class 104, 103, and 102 tools.
