Calico provides comprehensive engineering product design review support in-house to ensure robust injection molding manufacturability. Our expertise covers various aspects, including tooling, processing, assembly, testing, geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T), and inspection requirements.

We also offer program management services to ensure timely completion of tooling and Production Part Approval Process (PPAP). This helps streamline the manufacturing process and meet project timelines.

Calico employs a cross-functional Advanced Product Quality Planning (APQP) team to ensure a flawless launch into production with zero-defect expectations. This team collaborates across departments to ensure all aspects of the project are carefully planned and executed.

With AutoCAD and SolidWorks capabilities, Calico can provide detailed design and modeling support for your projects.

In terms of strategic alignment, Calico has established relationships with multiple tooling suppliers, both locally and overseas. This allows them to offer competitive pricing, reduced lead times, and innovative solutions. We also work closely with raw material suppliers to provide critical support and conduct molding analysis, such as gating evaluation, mold filling, cavity balance, and warp analysis.

Calico collaborates with automation suppliers to implement comprehensive poke-yoke (error-proofing) solutions for assembly and testing processes. To ensure quality and precision, Calico partners with inspection suppliers who have complete 3D scanning capabilities.

Additionally, we work with gage suppliers to provide variable and attribute gauging solutions during production.

Overall, Calico offers a comprehensive range of services and strategic partnerships to support the entire product development and manufacturing process, ensuring efficient and high-quality results.
