3D Printed Molds - Getting Mass Production Potential From Your 3D Printer!

When you think of molds, you immediately think of CNC, EDM machined metal dies, or the type that grows on old cheese, right?
In terms of manufacturing, molds are expensive to make and are built for a product’s mass production cycle lifetime. Typically, you offset this expense with the revenue generated from the large volume of casted parts…. But what about low-to-mid volumes?
This webinar answers the question: How can you reduce mold-making costs?
Topics we cover include:
-Mold prototyping
-Different molding techniques
-Examining mold performance and part quality
-Freedom to iterate your part/mold design
-Reduce mold-making costs
-Case studies

[@ВладиславПротасевич-р9б]

очень познавательно, спасибо за труд😊

[@emanggitulah4319]

Such a simple part is actually not thousands of dollars but in a few hundreds

[@MLCCADSystems]

Tooling costs can vary a lot depending on size and complexity, but with this method you can control both cost and lead time with no cost penalty for complexity in the mold geometry. Every ROI will be different depending on your current situation and cost structure.

[@juansebastiansanchezlopez9312]

so you would do this project for 360 dollars including mold, production and design?

[@MLCCADSystems]

No, the cost of materials is only one component of project costs, but as you see in the video some of those costs can be prohibitive using traditional manufacturing methods.

Awesome video 🎉 hiw can i contact you i urgently need a 3D printed ceramic mold

We are happy to help if you are interested in testing an application with interest in purchasing a 3D printer, but for a single part or a fast turnaround you should reach out to a 3D printing service bureau. We may be able to recommend someone if you reach out to our 3D printing team by phone or email.
