Tooling Solutions

Decades of Experience, Thousands of Tools Delivered

RP Technologies manufactures precision tooling across the full production lifecycle, from early-stage prototypes through to high-volume production. Our range covers aluminium and stainless steel tooling, investment casting tooling, jigs and fixtures: robust, accurate solutions built to perform where it matters.

Our tooling is manufactured at our UK facility in the West Midlands, where customers benefit from skilled toolmakers, modern manufacturing technology and responsive support. For projects where flexibility and lower-cost production are the priority, we also work with trusted overseas manufacturing partners. In every case, customers can depend on quality workmanship and reliable service.

Whatever the challenge, whether it's a fast-turnaround prototype, a durable production tool or bespoke support equipment for assembly and inspection, we have the experience and capability to deliver.

    Aluminium Tooling

    Aluminium tooling is the smart choice for prototype, pre-production and lower-volume production projects, offering shorter lead times and far greater flexibility for modifications.

    With decades of experience, RP Technologies is the UK's leading aluminium tool maker. We handle complex geometries and demanding applications as standard, producing tools built for accuracy, reliability and repeatable performance. From initial concept through to finished production, we're with you every step of the way.

    Steel Tooling

    Steel tooling is the ideal choice for high-volume, long-run production. With unmatched cost-per-unit, steel tools are often the most commercially sound decision for customers committed to sustained, high-volume production.

    We manufacture steel tooling to exacting standards, handling complex geometries and tight tolerances as standard. From initial order through to long-term production support, we're with you for the long run.

    Investment Casting Tooling

    Investment casting is uniquely suited for complex shapes, fine detail and components where dimensional control is critical.

    Also known as lost wax casting, it's a process trusted across aerospace, medical, automotive and defence for producing accurate, repeatable parts with excellent surface finish straight from the tool.

    Our team develops tooling solutions with a focus on practical manufacturability and casting consistency. If you need parts that are right first time and every time, get in touch with our team.

    Jigs & Fixtures

    We can provide bespoke jigs and fixtures, built to improve efficiency, repeatability and accuracy across all aspects of production. From simple assembly aids to complex holding and inspection fixtures, every solution we produce is tailored to the specific demands of the application.

    We can supply jigs and fixtures across multiple sectors that demand accuracy, including aerospace, automotive and defence. The result is practical, high-quality tooling support that integrates cleanly into your production environment and keeps your operations running to standard.

    Low Cost Tooling Solutions

    RP Technologies provides flexible, cost-effective tooling solutions through a combination of in-house UK expertise and a trusted network of overseas manufacturing partners. We manage sourcing, quality control and project delivery, giving you the benefits of global manufacturing with the reassurance of a single UK point of contact.

    From prototype tooling to full-scale production, our experienced team supports every stage of the product journey.

    Testimonials

    "When I think about RP Technologies, the first thought is: really reliable partner for automotive plastic parts.

    Moreover, very good support of development, testing and reports, which are very useful. I can recommend this provider without a doubt."

    Bartosz Pazdzior, Pilkington Automotive

    "“RP Technologies, through incredible professional service, quality and value over the past few years have become our first choice for rapid injection tooling and parts.

    They specialise in rapid injection tooling without the distraction of other forms of prototyping which makes them expert at what they do.

    There is nothing they can’t do with a mould tool.

    They also offer inspection and PPAP. Competitive on cost and lead time with China or anyone."

    David Beckett, Component Engineer, Lear Corporation

    "The RP Technologies team has supported us well through the challenging time of new vehicle development.

    There has always been a willingness to support with late changes and the challenges that this brings.

    We look forward to developing the relationship further on many new projects to come."

    Graeme Barron, Manufacturing Process Engineer, Morgan Motor Company
