Part design
Review the CAD model and drawing against the intended function, mating parts, surface requirements and target quantities. Resolve design decisions with the customer before tooling.
Catalogue
Custom plastic injection parts
Take an original part design through design for manufacture, mould-making management and piece production in Asia with FFG. The ABS electronic upper cover below shows this customer co-development route; geometry, interfaces and validation are defined for each new project.
From part brief to delivered component
Tooling and validation
Define the tooling route and the checks needed on initial parts. Geometry, tolerances, appearance and fit are agreed for the specific project.
Manufacturing and delivery
Plan production, inspection and delivery around the approved part specification and agreed quantities.
Start with the material
ABS
The electronic equipment upper-cover example uses ABS. For a new part, define the exact resin grade, colour, finish and operating requirements alongside the tooling and fit specification.

Electronic equipment covers
Explore the ABS upper-cover co-development example, from customer design through FFG DFM and tooling management to production in Asia. Define your own enclosure interface, fastening, finish and operating conditions from its CAD and drawing.
Discuss this application ↗What to include in your brief
- What does the part cover or connect to?
- Do you have a 3D CAD model and a 2D drawing?
- Which material, finish, tolerances and validation requirements are already defined?
- What quantities and delivery timing are expected?
Build a useful enquiry
Share the part or assembly drawing, overall dimensions, material or grade if known, interfaces, quantities and timing. Include the requirements you need to validate.
