As a manufacturer, you would like to use the most appropriate production method to maximize your profit, and it is possible only when you have good knowledge of all available alternatives. We are here talking about the Rapid Aluminum Tooling, which is believed to be the most suitable method when you are required to deliver desired products in a limited time. To know about the Rapid Aluminum Tooling process and its uses, read the information given in this blog.

What does it mean by Rapid Tooling?

Describing in simple words, rapid tooling is the process to modify (simplify) the molds to give them the desired structure. In other words, rapid aluminum tooling can be described as a process through which, the cavity, core and ejector plates are built, which are later fitted into the master unit. Then, the prepared mold is used in the injection molding process to build the desired products. It is probably the fastest method to prepare relevant molds according to the required products.

When do we use rapid tooling?

We have already mentioned that rapid tooling is the fastest method to prepare the desired mold, which is why this method is believed to be the best alternative for the production of plastic products on a small scale. In other words, manufacturers are sometimes required to produce plastic products on a small scale and in that case, it won't be a good idea to waste time on the production of new molds. Instead of this, it will be better to opt for the rapid tooling to simplify the mold structure as per your requirement.

Key characteristics of Rapid Aluminum Tooling are that the tooling time is shorter than a conventional tool and apart from this, tooling cost is also less than other conventional methods.
