Kids, do you know what injection molding is? It is a super cool way to produce a lot of the things we use every day. Ever wondered what makes your toys or your toothbrushes, or your toothbrushes or parts in cars?! It is a little like magic, the plastic is melted and forced into a mold, and when cooled, the mold is removed resulting in the final form. This helps form the melted plastic into the final design, the product you can then use. But have you ever considered how those molds are made? However, let me introduce you to the concept of 3D printing!
Previously, molds for injection molding were made of energy-intensive metals and other materials. This has implied that the whole process was complex, time-consuming, and expensive. It could take weeks to complete if a business desired a mold that was customized for a particular product! AN INDIAN cement company has developed a new way of making names with no traditional technology available, besides having the new mold craft that has been devised with 3D printed available now. This is such an exciting new shift!
The great thing about 3D printing is how quickly it works. 3D printing can take molds, which instead of taking days or weeks to create can be made in just a couple of hours! This means that we can produce the actual products much faster as the mold is ready. Isn't that awesome? Also, if we have to adjust the mold for any reason, we can do so fast and free of charge. This is known as rapid prototyping, and it saves time and money for all people who are involved.
One more great benefit of 3D printed molds is the simple ability to customize them. Products being specific means the molds can be customized. Making molds that are perfectly fit for a product's unique look and features, better quality item can be created. And because we’re able to print molds of all sorts of shapes and curves, that also opens up a lot of possibilities for the types of products we’re able to produce. Traditional molds, which tend to be more fixed, aren't always as flexible.
But 3D printed molds can be used for way more than just that! This means that they can be utilized to create a wide range of different things, either small pieces or larger items. One of the awesome parts of 3D printing is it enables us to quickly and easily iterate, modifying a mold that we have. This allows us to make a wide range of things and reuse the same mold without beginning from the ground up. This poses a significant advantage to popular companies looking to produce a lot of products in a very short amount of time.
3D printing is revolutionizing the injection molding industry as it is much faster and more flexible than the traditional way of making molds. At a company like Moldie we can make molds suitable for injection moulding quickly and cheaply. It helps manufacturers deliver faster than ever to customers. By accelerating the manufacturing process, we are allowing companies to get their awesome products into more people's hands.
