Eclipse Mold Inc.

In 1976, Eclipse Mold, Inc. began to take shape in the in the 10' x 20' backroom of Paragon Fastener - a company Eclipse Mold still does business with today. Fred S. Craprotta Sr. took the opportunity to utilize the room, given to him by his father-in-law, to complete mold work from larger, overloaded mold shops. By completing the work with higher quality, greater efficiency and at a better price, he would soon "overshadow" his competition. And thus, the "Eclipse" name took hold.

Eclipse Mold's in-house prototype division allows us to decrease the time it takes for your vision to get into production and onto the market. In as little as 5-7 days, we can build an aluminum mold that is ready to shell out production-quality parts. Fully automatic bridge molds can be built in four weeks, whereas hardened S-7 multi-cavity production tools can be ready in an average of 6 to 8 weeks.

Most members of the Eclipse Mold team have at least a decade of mold-building experience under their belt. This dedicated experience, merged with the latest technologies From Makino, allows us to utilize the latest software from MasterCam, Powershape and Delcam products to produce volumetrically accurate molds yielding a precision performance to help create profitability to our customers.
