3D Printing for Molds and Plastic Molding - Prototypes and Tooling
Before investing tens of thousands of euros in an injection mold, it is advisable to validate the part. Third-party 3D printing allows you to create a prototype of the component, check joints, thicknesses, and functionality, and correct the design when modifying a file costs a few euros instead of re-working a block of steel.
What we produce for mold makers and molders
- Prototypes of the final part to validate dimensions and assemblies before mold construction
- Soft tooling: resin prototype molds for pre-series and small production runs
- Inserts, pins, and control jigs for the molding department
- Assembly jigs and fixtures for presses
- Thermoforming models and testing templates
Materials and Technologies
For aesthetic and functional prototypes, we use SLA with ABS-like and tough resins, which provide smooth surfaces and details faithful to the molded part. For components subject to mechanical stress or heat, we switch to FDM with PA-CF, PETG-CF, and ASA, or SLS in PA12 for robust parts without supports.
A Concrete Advantage in Brianza
The fabric of mold makers and plastic processing between Monza, Brianza, and Lecco thrives on fast turnaround times. Having a service in Monza that delivers the prototype in 24-72 hours, before sending the mold for processing, eliminates the most costly errors in the cycle. We work alongside mechanical prototyping offices and machinery manufacturers in the area. Discover all the services in Brianza.
