Freeform Injection Molding, the New Platform Dedicated to 3D Printed Tooling
Summary
Originally shown in 2019, this platform aims to provide professionals around the world with a solution for making molds of any size using Nexa3D’s NXE 400 systems. Through this collaboration, the two companies hope to provide many industries with an effective solution to the problems faced by the tooling sector. Designed to industrialize and improve tooling production processes, the FIM platform offers professionals new opportunities. Now we can take these capabilities to the next level by partnering with Nexa3D to broaden access and superpower performance.” According to those involved in the project, the FIM platform will allow users to manufacture molds in just a few hours, instead of several week. In addition, the solution allows the design of molds with complex geometries, impossible to obtain with conventional methods, compatible with the majority of thermoplastics, especially high-performance ones.
