Ray Chan

Ray Chan works with buyers and engineers across the automotive, medical, electronics and consumer goods supply chains — from the first DFM conversation and tooling quote through high-volume production ramp-ups at DieStrike.

He has spent his career around precision injection molding and high-speed stamping: cavity steel held to ±0.002 mm on critical features, mirror finishes at Ra 0.02 µm, and the sourcing decisions that separate smooth programs from costly rework. He writes to share that engineering and sourcing know-how — no fluff, just the numbers and decisions that actually matter on the shop floor and at the negotiation table.

"The best mold program is the one you never have to fix — good DFM and honest sourcing decisions up front save months and money later."
