3D Printed Molds Improve Lead Times, Require Less Upfront Investment over Aluminum Tooling
Injection molding, or injecting plastic material into a mold cavity where it cools and hardens to the composition of the hole, has traditionally been performed with high tooling costs and long lead times. However, recent advancements in 3D printing and additive manufacturing technologies have significantly improved the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of the process. Standard injection molding is typically a lengthy and costly process because tooling can take…
