MMT Visits Linear Mold to See Additive Mfg in Action
Linear Mold & Engineering opened its doors to us to talk about how they’re using additive manufacturingI to grow conformal cooling channels inside mold inserts and to make production parts for the aerospace and medical industries.
Linear Mold & Engineering is an innovative leader in tool building and part manufacturing using additive manufacturing (AM) technology. The company uses production 3D printing not only to "grow" metal parts that couldn't be made any other way, but also to create mold inserts with cooling lines that conform to the curves of the mold for improved heat transfer. Peter Zelinski and I, co-editors of Additive Manufacturing, visited Linear to film this video.
