How Rapid Injection Molding Works: Process, Timeline, and What to Expect

Rapid injection molding is not a different type of injection molding. It is the same process, running the same production-grade resins, producing parts with the same material properties. What changes is the tooling: aluminum instead of hardened steel, machined in days instead of weeks. That one difference compresses a 10-to-15-week tooling cycle into 7 to […]
Bridge Tooling: How to Get Production-Grade Parts Before Full Tooling Is Ready

There is a well-recognized gap in product development between prototype validation and the start of full production. Your design is approved. Customer demand exists. But your production tooling, machined from hardened steel to run hundreds of thousands of cycles, is still 10 to 20 weeks away. Bridge tooling is what fills that gap. It is […]
