We can convert these same files into mold designs and fill your requirements for molded parts faster than ANYONE ELSE! Laser sintering also allows us to sinter short production runs of a few hundred pieces or less.

Email your CAD file to email@columbineplastics.com. With this data, we can create a part that can be produced in a matter of hours. During this process, the SLS material you choose is selectively sintered (fused with heat) in layers of .002" to .006", depending upon your needs.

Utilizing Materialise Magics Software, the same file can be used to create mold cavity and core inserts in a matrix of A6 tool steel and bronze. These steel inserts are functionally equivalent to P-20, the most commonly used tool steel in the industry. Steel parts must be sintered in a kiln requiring an additional 24 hours.

Selective Laser Sintering allows Columbine Plastics to build molds in days instead of typical mold lead times of 8 to 12 weeks, reducing costs and saving time.
