The beginning of a 20x26 matchplate being machined from a solid billet. |
Whether your tooling requirements are cope and drag, matchplate, or permanent molds, we have the knowledge to get you correct tooling at affordable prices. Don't like pressure cast plates? We often fully machine matchplates from solid billets - which eliminates any porosity worries.
You name the material: aluminum, iron, steel, urethanes and exotics--we've had working experience with them all. In fact, though Midfield is only 25 years old, our combined pattern making experience exceeds 100 years of knowledge. (And, we don't mean 100 people who've been at it about a year.)
Have a critical delivery?

With one half of the matchplate machined, it's time to flip it over. |
Fast-Faster-Fastest. You make the choice. Our state-of-the-art CAD/CAM programming stations shorten turnaround time on CNC tooling.
For fast deliveries we can turn your blueprints into 3-D CAD models, then machine your patterns. For the fastest deliveries, email us your 3D CAD model. From Pro-E to AutoCad, solids to wire frames, we can convert them into our system.
We Know the Territory

Although the majority of our work centers around the midwest, we have an expanded customer base. And they know us--from Arizona to Denmark.
We've made customers into satisfied customers, and they've made themselves into repeat customers, our favorite kind.
