Vent Grill Family

Appliance vent geometries in family molds.

Vent grill family molds let appliance OEMs cover multiple SKUs on a single tool — reducing tooling spend and changeover downtime. Balanced runner layouts and consistent wall stocks are engineered upfront, not patched after T1.

  • Material: ABS FR or PC+ABS FR with UL94 V-0 ratings for appliance enclosures
  • Family mold layout: 2+2 to 8+8 cavity arrangements, naturally balanced runner system
  • Gate: pin gate at non-visible surface to preserve A-side cosmetics
  • Vent rib geometry optimized for airflow vs. moldability — DFM report included
  • Mold flow analysis available for complex rib patterns before steel is cut
