Molding
With additive manufacturing and the wide range of metal, thermoplastic and photopolymers materials available, you can quickly produce molds to evaluate prototype parts or produce low volumes of end use parts. This is especially useful to test the design, fit and function of products before mass production. If changes are required, new mold iterations can be 3D printed in just a few hours at minimal cost.
Includes Applications such as:
Injection Molding
Blow Molding
RTV Molding
LSR Molding
Molded Fiber
