Common methods of rapid prototype making

Prototype model itself is not mass-produced, generally only a few or dozens of products can be produced at a time. Reproduction requires mold opening, because the prototype model mainly examines the external performance of the product. It is necessary for the manufacturer to understand the feasibility of the product and avoid the huge cost of direct mold opening, so the production of the prototype model does not require much. So do you know the common methods of rapid prototype making? Next, the Xiehe prototype manufacturer will give you a brief introduction.

CNC machining technology:

The CNC prototype model integrates advanced technologies such as computer-aided design (CAD), computer-aided manufacturing (CAM), and computer numerical control (CNC). In the CNC machining center, the three-dimensional model formed on the computer is discovered with the overall material, and the excellent manual processing, Therefore, the modern industry is the CNC prototype model.

Rapid prototyping technology:

SLA (Stereolithogrphy Apparatus) technology is also known as light modeling or rapid prototyping of laser hardening. Charles Hul obtained a US patent in 1984. In 1988, the American 3d system company launched the commercial prototype SLA-I. This is the high-speed molding machine in the world. SLA model forming machines account for a large share of the RP equipment market.

Vacuum injection molding (silicone compound mold, over mold):

Vacuum injection molding, also known as vacuum complex molding, uses prototypes to directly replicate products under vacuum conditions. Well-designed products can be prototyped through various processing methods such as CNC and SLA, and products can be obtained through prototype replicating machines. The copied products have high precision and high strength, and the overall performance fully meets the design requirements. It is suitable for samples of small batches of functional parts, reducing the cost and risk of directly opening the steel mold.

What factors affect the precision of CNC prototype:

CNC processing is a common technique for making prototype models. Many people don't know the factors that affect the price of CNC processing prototypes in prototype factories. The editor below will give you a simple analysis. The size and structure of the prototype model. It depends on whether the model is disassembled. The price of some prototype models may vary greatly from those of undivided models. The CNC knife is not long enough, and the gong is not in place, so it still needs to be disassembled for processing. However, some materials cannot be separated and printed, such as PP materials, the adhesion is not strong, and there is no adhesive, and the separated materials cannot be joined. Models with complex structures of PP materials may be higher.

The above content is the common method of hand model making, I hope it can be helpful to everyone. If you want to know or customize the car light prototype, please call the Xiehe prototype manufacturer, we will serve you wholeheartedly.
