A rapid tooling project can move more smoothly when part geometry, material requirements, and inspection priorities are reviewed before mold machining begins. A clear design-for-manufacturability review helps identify features that may affect mold structure, part ejection, material flow, surface appearance, dimensional stability, and the likelihood of later...read more

Rapid tooling is most useful when a project needs injection molded parts before full production tooling is ready or justified. It can help product teams validate the intended resin, assess assembly fit, test functional features, prepare engineering samples, and support limited production requirements while the final manufacturing plan is still being...read more

Choosing between rapid tooling and production tooling is not simply a question of mold price or expected part quantity. The right route depends on how stable the design is, whether parts must be tested in the intended resin, how soon molded samples are needed, the expected production plan, and how demanding the resin and part geometry will be on the...read more

— Special Processing of Precision Mold & Rapid tooling in E-Mold Rapid Manufacturing   1. EDM   Electrical discharge machining process is: between the tool and workpiece continually occur pulsed spark discharges producing local, transient high temperature, which keeps the metal melting, gasifying and removing. Sparks...read more
