Service Overview

Runde provides professional DFM (Design for Manufacturability) analysis and new product development consultation for plastic injection molded parts. Before mold fabrication, our experienced mold engineers review your 3D data to identify potential manufacturing risks.

  • Accept STEP, IGES, STL and other mainstream 3D file formats
  • Independent in-house engineering team with mass-production mold experience
  • Support NDA signing to fully protect your new product intellectual property

Core DFM Check Items

Our engineers carry out comprehensive manufacturability inspection on your plastic part design to eliminate hidden risks ahead of mold making.

Draft & Undercut Inspection

Verify sufficient draft angles; detect unreasonable undercuts that cause complicated side actions or demolding failure.

Wall Thickness Control

Evaluate thickness uniformity to avoid sink marks, voids, warpage and inconsistent filling during injection.

Rib, Boss & Snap-fit Design

Optimize ribs, mounting bosses and snap joints for sufficient strength while reducing molding defects.

Molding Risk Prediction

Forecast potential weld lines, air traps, warpage and cosmetic defects related to gate layout.

Tolerance Rationalization

Review dimensional tolerances; suggest reasonable standards balanced between function and mold cost.

Surface & Material Evaluation

Assess texture, gloss and appearance requirements; provide professional plastic material selection advice.

Deliverables

After the DFM review, you will receive a structured report with clear risk levels, design comments and actionable optimization suggestions.

Annotated 3D / 2D Drawings

Marked-up drawings highlight critical design issues such as insufficient draft, undercuts, wall thickness variations and sharp corners.

Structured DFM Report

You receive a clear PDF report organized by inspection item, risk level, problem description and recommended improvement.

Risk Classification

Each issue is labeled as Critical, Medium or Low, so your team can prioritize design changes before mold manufacturing begins.

Design Optimization Proposals

We do not only point out problems. Where necessary, we provide alternative design proposals to improve moldability and reduce tooling risk.

What You Get

  • DFM Report (PDF)

    Formal manufacturability review document for internal approval.

  • Marked Drawings

    Visual annotations help your engineering team quickly locate risks.

  • Actionable Comments

    Each suggestion is linked to moldability, quality or cost impact.

  • Preliminary Timeline Reference

    Optional early feedback on prototype, mold and production scheduling.

A completed DFM report helps reduce unnecessary mold revisions, shorten development cycles and stabilize later production quality.
