Abstract

The use of plastic tooling in injection molding occurs within the field of Rapid Tooling (RT), which provides processes that are capable of producing injection mold tooling for low volume manufacturing at reduced costs and lead times. Such tooling allows the injection molding of parts in the end-use materials for functional prototype evaluation, short series production, and the validation of designs prior to hard tooling commitment. The term Rapid Tooling is somewhat ambiguous – its name suggests a tooling method that is simply produced quickly. However, the term is generically associated with a tooling method that in some form involves rapid prototyping technologies.
