toolcraft AG uses NX to accelerate 3D metal printing process

Since 2017, toolcraft has been using Siemens NX solutions for additive manufacturing. Advanced techniques like powder bed fusion and multi-axis applications have lead to highly efficient and effective production levels.

Injection Molding Prototypes

During the construction, attention is paid to the high stability and durability of the tool in order to achieve the lowest possible cycle times for injection molding. This means that, depending on the original material, far more than 100,000 components can be manufactured.
