MOFA AI模法
Modern Factory AI / 模法

From a drawing
to a container.

We use AI and our own hardware to help small and mid-sized factories with 3D design, molds, thermoforming and product video, and to find buyers worldwide.

02 / AI 3D

From a drawing or photo,
AI builds the 3D.

Start from a customer's drawing or a single product photo. See it in 3D first, and make molds only after it is approved.

03 / Parts & molds

Every part planned
before tooling.

AI works out how to split the parts, how many molds you need, and where the side actions and gates go. Your mold maker gets CAD files ready to use.

04 / Print compensation

See it formed
before you print.

Heated sheet stretches, and printed art shifts with it. AI works out how every point stretches and outputs compensated artwork, so the art lands where it should.

Red areas (over 2 mm) are still being improved.

  • Fewer samples, less wasted sheet
  • Each cavity on a multi-up sheet gets its own compensation
  • New material or machine? Recalibrate with one calibration sheet

05 / Our own hardware

Core hardware:
the AI scan rig.

Smart software still needs accurate measurements. We designed our own calibration sheet and scan rig; printed ArUco markers let AI locate every point.

06 / Thermoform molds

Designed by AI.
Printed in a day.

No more waiting for copper or aluminum molds. AI adds draft angles, places vent holes and hollows the back with ribs. Then the mold is 3D printed in a new heat-resistant resin.

08 / Global sales

Then we help you
sell it worldwide.

A global buyer database of brands, wholesalers, retailers and trading companies. AI finds the buyers who fit, drafts the outreach emails and tracks every lead through to the order.

Global buyer database

Filter by product and market. Each lead shows what they buy, who supplies them now and what they shipped recently.

Outreach emails and inquiry page

A first email written for each buyer, in their language, with your video link. Plus an English inquiry page where buyers can leave a message.

Follow-ups on schedule

First email, then day 4 and day 10, plus LinkedIn. Replies, samples and quotes are tracked, so no buyer is missed.

Factories × traders × buyers Coming soon

Think 1688 or Alibaba, built for custom manufacturing: factories, trading companies and buyers matched online, with orders going straight to the factory.

09 / AI engineer

Not a chatbot.
It does the work.

Our AI works like an engineer on a cloud computer. It runs CAD, Blender, rendering and layout software itself, from reading your files to delivering finished ones.

10 / How we work

Start in three steps.

  1. 01

    Send your files

    Email us drawings, photos or 3D files. Have a sample? Send photos of it.

  2. 02

    See it first

    AI makes the 3D model, the part split plan and the forming prediction. Go ahead only when you are happy.

  3. 03

    Produce and sell

    Move on to samples, molds and mass production. Then we help you find overseas buyers and make product videos.
