166. Rapid prototyping for spin casting
Spin Casting has brought rapid prototyping technology to a completely different level of production tooling efficiency. Spin casting technology can accommodate a number of metals to produce fine quality prototypes that are fully functional and produced according to design specifications.
Spin casting can also produce prototypes in many other types of materials as well. Using polyurethane, polyester, epoxy or wax; spin casting can produce a number of products in a variety of materials. Comparing the production cost of spin casting and traditional tooling has spin casting as the most cost effective method of production. Spin casting can produce the same products as traditional tooling and molds but for a fraction of the cost. With spin casting an additional feature is be able to control the number of items manufactured. With traditional manufacturing, single or small item orders are generally more expensive with prices decreasing as unit numbers increase. But spin casting costs remain stable throughout the production process regardless of the number of items produced making it very cost efficient.
Spin casting cuts the time needed to produce prototypes by a considerable amount and will have prototypes available for the testing phase in a shorter amount of time. Spin casting technology can support post production finishing by being able to use a wide variety of materials. Spin casting techniques are easy to use, cost effective and a time conserving technology for the production of rapid prototypes.
