Trial Runs

Schedule a call

Liondell’s tool trial runs provide the essential step between initial mould samples and full-scale production.

By running controlled, low-volume trials, we verify that your tooling performs as intended, assess part quality and identify refinements before committing to full manufacturing. This early validation reduces risk, improves reliability and ensures your project enters production with confidence.

With over 50 years of combined experience, Liondell delivers precision-led trial runs that support SMEs through to major manufacturers. Our UK-based engineering team works with trusted global partners, giving clients flexible trial options and dependable risk reduction before large-scale investment. Tool trial runs at Liondell are conducted under production-like conditions, using the same materials, settings and processes as full-scale manufacture. This allows us to:

  • Validate tooling for durability and repeatability
  • Identify performance or design concerns early
  • Produce reliable data for QA and regulatory approvals
  • Supply test parts for assembly checks or market trials

We have worked with Liondell on a number of very technical projects. With their strong mould design knowledge and experience we have been able to achieve some fantastic results. Their standard approach to the full process ensures all elements are considered, discussed and approved at each stage to ensure the final tools meet or exceed the expectations of all involved. We look forward to continuing to work together.”

It is a pleasure to work with Liondell (Andy & James). Their process is very simple but detailed, from the initial quote, through DFM, GA activities to tool receipt. Their process for pre-shipment check and UK toolroom inspection BEFORE we receive the tools works extremely well. We have not had a fault with the tooling we have received from them. We look forward to working with them in the future”
