Injection Molding

Advances in 3D printing make it ideal for prototyping, customized molds, manufacturing aids, and end-use parts. As a result, more companies are purchasing fused filament fabrication (FFF) 3D printers to streamline their production processes. But choosing the right 3D printer...

Next-generation solution provides a modern, integrated approach to simulation-driven design for manufacturing (DFM) of injection-molded components to reduce costs and delays.

Companies announce production of protective goggles for use in hospitals and rescue services.

Cimatron software reduces tooling design time by up to 50% and delivery time by up to 20%, company reports.

The memorandum of understanding is aimed at bringing together both parties’ extensive knowledge and technical expertise to advance the role of simulation in LSR injection molding.
