The best way to manufacture curved, round, and complex form dies. Up to 50% faster.
Monolithic Design
No welding substructures
Near Net Printing
1/4″ to net within ~24 hours
Minimal Machining
No hogging material out
Stretch form dies typically have large curved geometry and therefore LFAM technology makes a great tooling solution. Forming metals with plastics!
Deep, curved geometry is best 3D printed to a near-net shape vs. casting metals in block form and machining most of it away.
