• Material Saving - Remove material from areas it’s not needed. On some parts this can reduce weight by more than 10%.

​​

• Faster Cycle Time - Thick sections take much longer to cool. Eliminating them enables you to open the mold sooner.

​

• Tighter Specifications - If you’re setting the weight of the molding to achieve a minimum wall thickness in specific places then you’re probably wasting material in other places.

​

• Reduced Distortion - Thick sections shrink more than adjacent thin areas which causes distortion and ‘paneling’ Our 3DX gives you the control needed to eliminate the problem.

​

• Increased Strength - Excessive wall thickness is one of the most common cause of drop test failure as thinner sections have the ability to absorb energy, like the ‘crumple zones on an automobile.
