Injection moulding
Metal additive manufacturing is an excellent partner when it comes to injection moulding and die casting. Digitisation and 3D printing enable the design and manufacturing of moulds with complex conformal cooling channels. Thanks to this, waste is reduced, the quality of the finished product is improved and cooling efficiency is increased.
Try to imagine a completely efficient, faster production process that leads to a higher quality result – impossible with traditional technologies.

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 localised 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.
