Using Advanced Cooling Techniques to Reduce Cycle Times and Improve Quality in Injection Molding
If parts do not cool down enough or cooling happens unevenly, they can shrink or warp, requiring time-consuming rework processes. Fortunately, numerous ways exist to accelerate cooling time while ensuring it happens effectively.
3D Printing and Sustainable Auto Manufacturing: A Glimpse into the Future
The excitement around 3D printing in the automotive industry is easier to understand in light of growing sustainability needs. While vehicles themselves may be the most obvious target for emissions reductions in this sector, the production side needs improvement, too.
Audi Sport Accelerates Design and Production Processes with trinckle Software and UltiMaker 3D Printers
When the new Audi E-Tron GT was introduced, the Audi Sport BĂ'llinger Höfe location in Heilbronn, Germany, rapidly needed almost 200 new tools, jigs and fixtures for its production. Designing these tools costs a lot of time.
THE ROLE OF MICRO MOLDING IN THE PRODUCTION OF MICRO-OPTICS
Achieving the exacting tolerances required for these delicate micro-optic parts necessitates a deep and specialized processing knowledge that is distinctly different from that used for typical mechanical parts.
THE IMPACT OF 3D PRINTING ON MICRO MOLDING - A SYNERGISTIC APPROACH
The precision achieved in micro molding is not just about miniaturization, it's about reproducing complex shapes with exacting tolerances that are measured in microns repeatably.
The Evolution of Additive Manufacturing: How Automation Redefines Post-Processing Standards
In 2024, post processing metal parts is still a bottleneck in the AM process chain because it is still very often a manual, labor-intensive, messy (filthy, actually) and sometimes risky task.
