Rapid Tooling |
Using this new technological process in the rapid manufacturing of tools, we at KL TECHNIK can produce injection moulding parts direct from 3D data in the shortest possible lead times. |
| Description: |
Duration: |
||
KL Technik converts the client`s 3D data into SLA data . |
2 hours | ||
A SLA part (Stereolithography) is produced. |
2-3 days | ||
This SLA part which is used as a master pattern and built in a positive format is placed in a set-up block and a secondary material is poured around it. In addition, the casting material possessing properties similiar to aluminium is allowed to cure. |
3-5 days | ||
The tool is completed. |
2 days | ||
Injection moulding takes place |
1 day | ||
Entire duration: |
2-3 weeks | ||
| Total costs: approx. 15-45% of the price of traditional methods in producing small production runs. Maximum output: 100 - 2000 parts depending on the geometry and materials. Accuracy: similar to aluminium moulds. Benefits: Alterations in the tools can often be carried out (1 - 2 days) at a marginal cost. Within one week we can deliever to you the altered parts using the injection moulding method. Up until now, we have successfully manufactured over 150 tools using this method. |
