: This A Wi-Fi router is a device that performs the function of a wireless access point, it is used to provide access to the internet or a private computer. It is the hardware device that provide basic infrastructure for a home or small office network.Proposed to make a single impression semi-automatic family mould to design top and bottom cover for Wi-Fi router to make it more aesthetic, to reduce material cost, better heat dissipation, and to reduce the tooling cost, to make the product more competitive in the market.It is proposed select the suitable plastic material, to modify the existing plastic product design and to develop a suitable two plate family mould of one impression each using SIEMENS NX software. It is also proposed to make detailing of mould parts and its assembly for manufacturing using SIEMENS NX software. The analysis was done in AUTODESK MOLDFLOW. The mould cost, raw material cost and processing cost per component are to be estimated to find the cost per component and to compare it with the existing component part.
