Injection Molded Parts in <24 Hours With 3D Printed Molds + Q&A

The majority of plastic products in the world today are manufactured by injection molding. However, fabricating molds can be prohibitively expensive and time-consuming and is not cost-effective for low-volume production. Fortunately, for limited quantities, molds don’t always need to be machined out of metal — they can be 3D printed.

Watch the preview for this webinar.

In this webinar, we'll show you how to use stereolithography (SLA) 3D printed molds in the injection molding process to lower costs, reduce lead times, and bring better products to market. Through the real-life case studies with a contract manufacturer, a product development company, and a leading petrochemical company, you'll learn how 3D printing enables on-demand fabrication of rapid tooling to quickly produce small batches of thermoplastic parts.

Chris Adams, Applications Engineer at Formlabs, answers any of your questions during a Q&A session.

What you’ll learn:
  • How to injection mold parts with 3D printed rapid tooling
  • Step by step guide to in-house rapid injection molding
  • Real-life case studies with rapid tools for injection molding
