Flow and Leak Testing for Molded Products & Assemblies

DWE provides flow and leak testing alongside injection molding, assembly, engineering, and other manufacturing capabilities to help verify products before delivery.

Testing as Part of the Manufacturing Process

A component can meet its dimensional requirements and still need additional testing to confirm that the finished product performs as intended.

 

DWE provides flow and leak testing as part of its broader product testing and assembly capabilities. Integrating testing into the manufacturing program allows our team to evaluate completed components and assemblies without adding another supplier or process handoff.

Flow and Leak Testing Capabilities

Testing requirements vary by product, so DWE develops the approach around the component, assembly, and application.

Flow Testing

Evaluate flow characteristics when required by the specifications and performance requirements of the finished product.

Test components and assemblies for leaks as part of the manufacturing and quality process.

Incorporate testing into broader product builds to help verify completed components and assemblies before delivery.

Work with DWE’s engineering team to evaluate product requirements, identify potential issues, and determine how testing should fit into the manufacturing process.

Test the Product, Not Just the Part

For complex products, quality involves more than inspecting individual molded components.

 

DWE can integrate flow and leak testing with molding and assembly, allowing the completed product or assembly to be evaluated as part of the larger manufacturing process.

 

This integrated approach supports DWE’s broader focus on combining engineering, molding, assembly, finishing, and quality expertise within the same manufacturing program.

Develop Testing Around the Product Requirements

Testing is most useful when it reflects what the product actually needs to accomplish.

 

DWE’s engineers can work alongside your team to understand performance requirements, identify potential manufacturing concerns, and determine how flow or leak testing should be incorporated into the production process.

That support can include:

Product requirement review

Design verification support

Validation support

Manufacturing process evaluation

Testing process development

Troubleshooting and failure analysis

DWE’s engineering team already works with customers to identify manufacturing issues and refine production approaches before those issues become costly problems.

Build, Assemble & Test With One Partner

Some molded components require an O-ring groove as part of the finished design.

 

DWE can machine these features after molding, allowing the injection molding and machining processes to be considered together rather than managed independently.

 

For components that continue into assembly, DWE can also coordinate the machined part with the next stages of the manufacturing program.

Verification Before Delivery

Flow and leak testing can provide another checkpoint for products with specific functional requirements.

 

DWE combines product testing with engineering oversight, controlled manufacturing processes, and inspection to identify potential problems before completed products reach your operation.

 

That broader approach supports 99.7% defect-free production and is backed by an ISO 9001:2015-certified quality management system.

Quality That Goes Beyond Inspection

DWE’s flow and leak testing capabilities are part of a larger approach to manufacturing and validating complete products.

 

Our engineering, molding, assembly, testing, and quality capabilities allow one team to take responsibility for more of the manufacturing process.
