Sheet Metal Fabrication: Choosing the Right Process for Your Design

Sheet metal fabrication covers a family of processes, not a single one. A part that looks simple in CAD can require multiple sequential operations: cut to profile, punched for holes, bent to geometry, tapped for fasteners, and finished. Choosing the right process at each step, and designing the part to work with those processes, is […]
What Is Cast Urethane? How It Works and When to Use It

Cast urethane is a low-volume manufacturing process that produces plastic and rubber-like parts by pouring liquid polyurethane resin into a silicone mold. It occupies a specific and well-defined role in product development: quantities too small for injection molding, surface quality too high for 3D printing, and material flexibility that neither process can match. How Cast […]
