Working with you, we can create near-net-shape tooling of any shape, at our facility in Leicester, UK, ensuring your tool is as close to the final shape and size as possible, reducing post-production time and resources.
Using your CAD drawings and designs, first we create a bespoke negative mould for your tool using one of our low-density polyurethane materials. We then select the system for casting based on your application and requirements and use the negative mould to cast your near-net-shape tool.
We have a range of materials available for mass casting applications and near-net-shape tooling, with densities ranging from 600 kg/m3 to 1,700 kg/m3.
