SET™ OUTPERFORMS LCC WHITE PAPER
At A1, we combine the quality of domestic tooling with the cost savings of international tooling to provide Supported Economical Tooling, or SET™.
Supported Economical Tooling SET® combines the superior quality and reliability of domestic tooling with the cost savings of international tooling, which is BETTER than LCC (Low-Cost Country). International molds all begin with Design for Manufacturing (DFM) to document the specifics of the desired finished mold. Once the DFM is produced, an on-site project manager oversees your SET® mold’s international production to keep your project on task and on time. Samples are shipped directly to you prior to the mold leaving Asia.
A1’s SET® molds are considerably better than traditional LCC molds. Our technical expertise, communication process, quality control, carefully chosen vendors, and “feet on the street” eliminate surprises. SET® promises a mold your engineers and molders will love. There’s a reason leading OEM manufacturers use A1’s SET® program versus going direct: our proven results.
No more surprises! Stop wasting time and money. Order your international molds from A1, and be confident the mold will be exact to your specifications, Contact Us.
Customers were concerned about manufacturing complex molds internationally. Honestly, we were too. However, with employees in Asia, we have selected the best shops and processes to ensure your mold meets A1’s standard of quality. To prove it, we stand behind our SET® molds for life. A leading Fortune 500 company trusted us to produce a complex two-shot mold, and we delivered. No mold is too complex for our team.
