Tooling
Tooling is where AM pays for itself quickly. Conformal cooling channels printed right into the insert cut cycle time, stop hot spots and keep the tool alive longer. Geometries that are awkward to mill or impossible to drill become routine.
Applications
What we print for tooling
Parts where AM earns its place.
Injection mould inserts with conformal cooling
Die-cast tooling
Thermoforming moulds

Wear-resistant forming dies
By the numbers
What this has meant in practice
Up to 40%
Cycle-time reduction
2 - 3x longer
Tool life improvement
Near-isothermal
Cooling uniformity
Case study
One we can talk about
Injection Mould with Conformal Cooling
An injection mould core in MS1 with conformal cooling. 38% shorter cycle time, and the hot spots on the moulded part went away.
