Dickten Masch Plastics        Advancing Technical Solutions        Our Expertise. Your Advantage.™

Setting the Standard in High-Quality Tooling

Dickten Masch Plastics was founded in 1941 as a tool and die shop. We know that quality products begin with quality tooling. Our heritage is honored by a staff of journeymen toolmakers on site to build, maintain, rebuild and alter both thermoplastic and thermoset molds.

You get significant total-cost advantages when you turn to our Moldflow® certified engineers, who use software simulations to evaluate and fix potential problems in mold design. Details such as part geometry, material selection, gating method, gating location, cooling line locations and steel types are analyzed to eliminate manufacturing issues before they arise.

For maximum life expectancy, your molds are built to SPI Class 101 specifications. Some of our in-house equipment includes:

  • High speed milling
  • CNC EDM
  • Wire EDM
  • CNC vertical milling
  • Grinders
  • Lathes
  • Automated steel and graphite machining centers

Customers come to us with even the most complex tool or tightest timeline. And through our in-house capabilities as well as strategic domestic and international relationships, we deliver.
