Rapid Injection Molding
Rapid injection molding
Rapid injection molding is a popular manufacturing technique that has been idolized for years. Rapid injection molding is similar to conventional molding, yet different enough to affect how parts are designed. This technique lets companies quickly get low-cost and dimensionally accurate prototypes as well as low-volume production parts from plastics.
Rapid injection molding falls between rapid prototyping and conventional injection molding. This technique supports prototyping, bridge tooling, and low-volume production. Additive methods such as FDM and SLA work well for testing form and fit, but often such parts are not a substitute for testing with real injection molded parts. Rapid injection molding is also fast […]
