Fischer Connectors 3D print mould tools This mould tool is clamped down at 30 tons, with up to 1,000 PSI of plastic injection pressure heated to over 380°F (ca. 190°C). For this application, Fischer Connectors use HSHT fiberglass in order to resist deformation of the mould’s small features such as the gate and sprue. With Markforged 3D printers, the team can print a set of mould tools in just 24 to 48 hours for ~$150 – far faster and cheaper than 2 to 4 weeks at a minimum of $5,000 with traditional methods. 💡 https://lnkd.in/dPTNT7Gh Materials: Markforged Onyx with continuous HSHT Fiberglass.
