Rapid Prototyping for Rotational Molding with Composite Tools

摘要

Conventional wisdom teaches that the relatively low cost of molds for the rotational molding process precludes the need for prototype tooling. The market has changed and it is time to reconsider preproduction prototyping for the rotational molding process.Today the market is overcrowded with a proliferation of new products from both foreign and domestic manufacturers. Competition for the consumer's dollar is at an all- time high. Original equipment manufacturers (OEM) are demanding and getting lower cost and faster delivery than ever before. Being the first to enter the market with a new product has taken on a new urgency.
