What your process engineer actually checks
Production polymer, not a printed proxy
FIM injects the material you will actually ship — including reinforced and high-performance grades — into a printed mould that then dissolves completely. You validate the real polymer and real moulded microstructure at quantities that never justify a steel tool.
A materials engineer on the line
Mould design review, injection-grade compatibility and first-run support from engineers who run FIM themselves. Sub-4h reply, NDA on request.
xMOLD is Nexa3D’s dissolvable resin for Freeform Injection Molding (FIM). You print the mold on an LSPc printer, inject a real production thermoplastic into it, then dissolve the mold away in solvent — getting injection-moulded parts in production material without cutting steel tooling.
Why engineers use xMOLD
Injection-moulded parts without the tooling lead time or the tooling bill.
Tooling in hours, not weeks
Print the mould on a Nexa3D LSPc system and inject the same day. Design changes go back through CAD, not back through a toolmaker.
Real production materials
xMOLD is compatible with thousands of commercially available injection moulding materials, including reinforced and high-performance grades — the polymer you will actually ship.
Geometry steel tooling fights
The mould dissolves completely, so undercuts, internal channels and trapped features release without side actions or a complex parting line.
No minimum order
Run a single part or a bridge batch. The economics work at quantities that never justify a steel tool, and scale up as demand proves out.
How Freeform Injection Molding works
Print, inject, dissolve — three steps from CAD to a moulded part.
Print the mould
Print the mould cavity in xMOLD on a Nexa3D LSPc printer, then wash and post-cure it ready for the press.
Inject production polymer
Mount the mould in a standard injection moulding machine and shoot your real production material, including reinforced grades.
Dissolve and release
Submerge the assembly in demoulding solvent. xMOLD dissolves completely and frees the part — no ejection damage on delicate geometry.

Compatibility & workflow
- Printers: Nexa3D LSPc systems — the XiP desktop for the standard FIM workflow, and NXE-series industrial printers where larger or more numerous moulds are needed.
- Injection materials: compatible with thousands of commercially available injection moulding polymers, including reinforced and high-performance grades. Confirm your specific grade with our engineers before a first run.
- Supporting equipment: a standard injection moulding machine, a Nexa3D wash-and-cure station, and an xWASH FiM demoulding station for dissolving the mould. Nexa3D Mold Generator software builds the mould geometry from your part CAD.
