What are the cooling advantages of dditive tooling?

Additive tooling provides limitless options for cooling a mold’s difficult-to-cool areas. The most challenging part of implementing additive tooling is getting cooling to and from the inserts in a mold. Here is a quick look at when to use conventional circuits or conformal cooling to achieve optimal production results with additive tooling. Conformal Cooling or [...]

A new thinking of mold design

Designing molds with additive tooling implementation in mind requires blending traditional mold standards with innovative new ideas of what is possible to push the limits of mold performance. Additive tooling refers to the use of 3D printing (e.g. direct metal laser sintering or DMLS) to produce mold inserts out of metal, specifically tool steels, that [...]
