[Mold making using a 3D printer]46% reduction in mold manufacturing man-hours!

2025/12/25

This time, we would like to introduce a mold manufacturing case for an automotive fuse box.
Previously, the mold was produced using a combination of machining centers and EDM machines, which inevitably required a large number of process steps.

By utilizing the LUMEX hybrid metal 3D printer, however, we were able to reduce mold manufacturing time by 46%.
In addition, the number of mold splits was significantly minimized.

Improving efficiency is one of the major challenges in the manufacturing industry.
