SPE Mold Technologies Division Hosts 3D-Printed Injection Molds Webinar
Join the Eastern New England and the Mold Technologies Division of the SPE: Inspiring Plastics Professionals for a webinar about 3D-printed injection molds.
Join the Eastern New England and the Mold Technologies Division of the SPE: Inspiring Plastics Professionals for a webinar about 3D-printed injection molds. The presentation on June 3 at 2 pm will be delivered by Fortify, a company that has developed a new 3D printing technology. The webinar will discuss the use of fiber reinforced polymers for 3D printed tools. Speakers from Fortifywill introduce the technology and best practices for success with 3D printed tools. By introducing reinforcing fibers in 3D printed parts, Fortify is able to print tools with revolutionary strength, stiffness, and temperature stability.
The business case is compelling, but these tools are different from metal tools and they require tweaks to both design, and operation. This webinar will review best practices for designing reinforced 3D printed tools, the operating differences between printed tools vs. metal, and the business opportunities accessible using 3D printed injection mold inserts.
The presentation will also highlight case studies where Fortify’s 3D-printed tools were used on real customer applications, including quick-turn COVID-19 PPE projects.
Link for the free webinar will be provided upon registration at https://lnkd.in/dDqaWuy.
