DME - A proud member of Hillenbrand family

Hillenbrand is a world-class, global diversified industrial company with businesses that serve a wide variety of industries around the world

In 1942, I.T. Quarnstrom founded Detroit Mold Engineering (today’s DME Company) to provide mould bases in standard sizes, ready for machining of the cavity. That was the beginning of the DME tradition of industry-leading innovation and standardization.

Significant advances in mould tooling technology are the DME story. With seven decades of making mould makers, moulders and designers more efficient and more productive, we’ve become an essential resource to the industry.

DME starts with only the finest material — as measured by industry-leading standards for quality assurance and supplier evaluation — to ensure high-quality, precision-finished components. And, DME manufacturing facilities are ISO 9001 certified to provide consistent, dependable quality.

For a sampling of innovative products that consistently improve productivity, DME’s extensive product catalog tells it all. If you’re involved in plastics injection molding tooling, DME has what you need. With over 35,000 catalog items, DME delivers a single source for virtually any tooling application.
