New - Rapid tooling!

As a cost effective alternative to milled foam samples we specialise in low cost rapid foam tooling manufactured directly from CAD data.

This process is often used in the place of milled foam parts for development and prototypes, the advantage against milled samples includes the fact that the mould tool can produce multiple parts, can be easily modified and that mouldings can be produced to the correct hardness including (if required) inserts.

With rapid foam tools we can typically go from CAD model to part in a few days and the cost is comparable to your first off milled part. 

The tool can then produce further parts and can be easily modified if required.

Please contact us for further information.
