Developing a new product or part is often costly. In many cases before commencing series or small series production it is necessary to test the design to ensure that it meets all the criteria before any error is reflected in production.
The prototype is a kind of materialized test or the design we made is really correct.
Using 3D printing, we can print almost any part expressively with relatively high precision, which gives us enormous possibilities compared to the past.
Combining 3D printing with other manufacturing technologies will allow us to produce small batches of relatively low cost. One such technique is casting.
Casting is the production of components and prototypes from materials in a liquid state, which after curing into molds cure. The advantage of this technology is that we can produce components and prototypes of complex shapes which would be lengthy, very laborious and expensive using other technologies.
By casting, we can reproduce the part according to the original model very accurately.
