Technology for Plastic Mold Tooling - Direct Metal Deposition
This whitepaper highlights the benefits of DMD(Direct Metal Deposition) technology in mold cycle time reduction. It presents a comparative analysis conducted for cycle time performance of a mold consisting of a conventionally machined tool steel insert to a mold fitted with a Chromium Copper insert with a coating of tool steel deposited by the DMD process.
