The Advantages of Using 3D Printing for Plastic Mold Products

Advantages of using 3D printing for plastic mold products:

1、 Convenient and requiring minimal preparation in advance

If there is a need for visible products immediately, it is usually necessary to develop new molds, which have a long cycle and require a significant amount of resources to design and process. Now with 3D printing, as long as the design is completed, we are not far from getting the plastic product. The entire process for plastic products weighing less than 300g only takes 1-3 days.

2、 Low modification and production cost

When a new product usually requires experimentation and improvement based on the experimental results, it is inevitably time-consuming and costly to make improvements on plastic molds. And 3D printing is about modifying the design and then printing another one. In addition, small plastic parts with low demand, low product weight, and complex structure have more advantages in terms of price and construction period

3、 Diversified products with short delivery time

In today's era that emphasizes individuality, differentiated products are the trend of the future. When we have a product idea, we can communicate with the store owner and obtain customized products. For the store owner, the only additional cost is the design fee. Once the design is completed, it can be produced without the need for assembly time. One day in the future, everyone will have a 3D printer, and we will no longer have to go to the mall to buy plastic products because we can produce them ourselves.

Of course, 3D printing currently has many limitations, such as limited material types, high prices, and insufficient strength, which need to be addressed through development.
