Volume Graphics has joined the Kunststoff-Institut “Rapid Tooling” project, which aims to develop cost and time effective 3D printed molds and inserts.
As a part of the Kunststoff-Institut consortium, Volume Graphics will offer in-quality assurance and process optimization for the 3D printed tooling.
“Working on this project with Kunststoff-Institut and partners is very important to us because we are convinced that industrial computed tomography can advance the future of rapid tooling.” Christof Reinhart, CEO of Volume Graphics.
Volume Graphics will use its software, VGSTUDIO MAX and VGMETROLOGY, to inspect the molds and inserts, reducing defects and warpage. Reinhart added, “With our Manufacturing Geometry Correction module we have laid the foundation for many new applications in tool and mold making that can take advantage of improving speed and quality developments in additive manufacturing.”
