What your process engineer actually checks
From printed prototype to molded part
We use injection molding to bridge our own printed prototypes into short runs, so install includes validated parameters for your resin and tooling guidance. The team that trains you actually molds parts — not a distributor reading a manual.
An applications engineer on the line
Questions on tooling, shot size, cycle times, or pellet selection? A named applications engineer answers directly. Most replies in under 4 hours, NDA standard.
About this product
APSX-PIM 3D Printed Insert Mold Frame: Ready-to-Use Platform
Key Features
- Plug-and-Play Assembly
- Alignment pins/bushings pre-installed – focus solely on fabricating your 3D inserts
- Dual-sided claw clamping system for secure mold mounting
- 3D Insert Requirements
- Recommended Printers: Origin, FormLabs, Markforged, Stratasys, Asiga
- Critical Material Properties:
- High-temperature resistance
- High thermal conductivity
- Materials Supported:
- PP (Polypropylene), PE (Polyethylene), TPE (Thermoplastic Elastomer) ONLY
- Avoid engineering resins (PC, Nylon, etc.) requiring high pressure/temps
- Accessory: 1/8″ high-temp silicone rubber sheet (available via McMaster-Carr)
-
- Tolerance Warning: Pins/bushings require machine or manual press installationInstallation & SafetyNEVER hand-press components – risk of damage/injury
Critical Considerations
⚠️ Material Limitations
Use ONLY PP, PE, or TPE
Higher-performance resins require steel/aluminum molds due to pressure/temperature demands
⚠️ Temperature Management
- No integrated sensor port for 3D inserts
- Mold insulator strongly recommended to stabilize thermal performance

Need tooling or a specific resin?
We mold our own. Tooling and trials on request.
Need a mold built, an insert cut, or a trial run before committing? We can produce tooling and run sample shots on the actual machine so you see molded parts first. Typical tooling lead 2–4 weeks.
