Reliable mould maintenance for maximum production reliability
At Tumag in Turnhout (Belgium), we ensure that your injection moulds and other precision tools remain in top condition. From preventive mould maintenance and full overhauls to fast repairs and modifications: our specialists combine technical expertise with modern production and measurement technology. This guarantees a long service life for your moulds, minimal downtime and consistent product quality.
Why mould maintenance is essential
Injection moulding forms the core of many industrial production processes. However, intensive use of a mould inevitably leads to wear. Regular tool maintenance prevents production defects, extends the service life of your tools and ensures a stable and predictable production process.
Professional maintenance contributes to:
- Higher product quality and less scrap.
- Minimal production downtime through preventive inspections.
- Longer service life of costly moulds.
- Lower total cost of ownership (TCO)
- A more sustainable production process through optimal material usage.
Well-maintained moulds also support efficient production and align perfectly with modern sustainability goals within the industry.
For us, mould maintenance means:
✔ Rapid intervention in case of breakdowns
✔ High-precision repairs
✔ Engineering and production under one roof
Maintenance, overhaul and repair of moulds
At Tumag, we can not only build a new mould for you; we are also highly skilled in mould overhaul and the repair of your existing mould components. Whether for periodic maintenance or for modifying moulds to meet new product specifications, you have come to the right place.
Our specialized maintenance services:
- Preventive maintenance: Prevent unexpected failures.
- Overhaul of mould components: Restore your tooling to like-new condition.
- Mould modification: Optimizing existing moulds for improved performance.
- Damage repair: Fast repair of damaged components.
- Reproduction: Remanufacturing complex, worn components.
Engineering and quality control under one roof
Thanks to our in-house engineering and measurement department, we are able to reproduce even the most complex mould components and machine parts. This can be done based on an existing model (reverse engineering) or a technical drawing.
Our integrated approach combines:
- Advanced quality control and 3D measurements.
- Precision engineering for optimal fit.
- Modern machining equipment for high-quality finishing.
- Many years of experience in mould making.
Short turnaround time for minimal production downtime
In a modern production environment, every minute counts. That is why at Tumag we focus on rapid interventions and short turnaround times. Because we manage engineering, machining, quality control and repair entirely in-house, we can act immediately. We guarantee a fast turnaround so that your mould is operational again as quickly as possible.

Are you looking for a reliable partner for professional mould maintenance, repairs or complete overhauls? Tumag in Turnhout helps you keep your production process reliable, efficient and sustainable.
Precision repair with laser welding
Damaged components can often still be salvaged. Our specialists in laser welding can precisely rebuild the damaged area, after which we perfectly finish the component again in our own turning, milling or EDM department.
Advantages of laser welding in mould maintenance:
- Extremely precise: Repair of very small damages is possible.
- Quality preservation: Minimal thermal impact and material distortion.
- Geometry: Full preservation of the original shapes and tolerances.
- Cost-saving: Repairing components is often faster and more cost-effective than full replacement.
24-hour laser welding service for urgent repairs
Do you need an urgent repair for a mould or critical machine component? We ensure a rapid intervention and efficient repair so that your production process can be operational again as quickly as possible. Our fast service combines:
- Rapid diagnosis
- Immediate scheduling
- High-quality repair
- Minimal downtime
This ensures a reliable and sustainable solution, even in urgent situations.
Frequently asked questions about mould maintenance (FAQ)
Do you also repair moulds that were not built by Tumag?
Yes, we provide maintenance, overhauls and repairs for all types of injection moulds and precision tools, regardless of the original manufacturer. Our engineers analyse the existing mould and ensure a perfect fit.
How quickly can you repair a damaged mould?
When production stops, every minute counts. Thanks to our 24-hour laser welding service and in-house machining equipment (milling, sinker EDM), we can often carry out urgent repairs quickly and effectively to minimize your downtime.
What does a complete mould overhaul include?
During an overhaul, we disassemble, clean and inspect the entire mould in our measurement room. Worn or damaged components are reproduced or repaired using laser welding, after which the mould is reassembled and finished until it performs like new again.
Do you only repair moulds?
No, our service goes far beyond injection moulds alone. You can also rely on us for the repair, overhaul and optimization of cutting punches and complex precision mechanical components. Thanks to our in-house processes, such as precision laser welding, milling and EDM machining, we restore every damaged or worn precision component exactly to its original dimensional tolerances.
Does a repaired precision component offer the same quality and lifespan as a new one?
Yes, a repaired component performs just as well as a new one. In fact, in many cases we use the repair as an opportunity to technically improve the component. Through laser cladding (laser cladding), we can directly apply an additional wear-resistant layer to the weaker areas of the mould. Combined with our in-house quality control, we ensure that your tooling not only fits perfectly but is also optimally protected against future wear.
