In certain embodiments, sets of mold plates may be re-aligned to create varying mold cavity geometries. In addition, in certain embodiments, a mold pin may be inserted into an inner volume of a mold plate to both create additional sharp transitions between adjacent surfaces. 1. A mold assembly , comprising:a first mold plate having a first mold cavity with a first surface;a second mold plate having a second mold cavity with a second surface, wherein the first and second mold cavities are disposed adjacent each other to form a combined mold cavity when the first and second mold plates are aligned with each other, wherein a sharp transition is formed between the first and second surfaces when the first and second mold plates are aligned with each other, and wherein the first and second mold plates are configured to remain aligned with each other during multiple cycles of a molding operation; anda third mold plate disposed adjacent to the first and second mold plates to close the combined mold cavity.2.
