Additive manufacturing for the Injection moulding industry

Prima Additive for the injection moulding sector

Find out what we do for the injection moulding sector

The value of additive manufacturing lies in function-oriented product design and in the manufacturing of products that cannot be produced with traditional technologies. This does not mean that traditional cooling channels are not adequate, but that channels made using additive manufacturing can bring more value to the finished product.

The main problems with moulds made using traditional technologies include low-heat dissipation, possible localized deformation at high temperatures, high-cost and slow production repeatability.

Additive manufacturing makes it possible to improve heat dissipation by creating conformal cooling channels. Thanks to this, production times are reduced, as are the costs of developing the finished product. A higher quality mould also means less scrap on finished parts and thus a more efficient production process.

Solutions

Find your ideal solution

We are at your service to help you redesign your moulds to achieve the best possible benefits through the design of new conformal cooling channels. In addition, we will support you in choosing the most suitable materials for your application.

The speed and ease of use of our machines also means that you can move quickly from design to manufacture, allowing you to modify and customize your moulds as required, giving you unmatched flexibility.
