Traditionally, molding thermoplastic resins required the production of molds, and 3D printers faced challenges such as layering weaknesses and limited materials. However, light molding using silicone rubber molds allows for the molding of thermoplastic resins without the need for expensive molds, achieving significant cost reduction and time savings. It enables quick and low-cost responses from prototypes to final products.

**Differences Between Light Forming and Other Technologies** Light forming is a technology often used for high-performance prototypes, such as high-performance models and practical prototype models. In vacuum casting, light sculpting, and 3D printing, the main applications are working models and design models; however, if performance is a priority in prototyping, light forming is the better choice. That said, it is not suitable for mass production, so it only accommodates the production of individual prototypes or small lot production. Since it can only produce items the size of a palm, please consult with us first.

Industrial X-ray CT is showing increasing demand for various applications such as non-destructive testing, non-contact measurement, and reverse engineering. By irradiating the workpiece with X-rays, it is possible to obtain transmission images of the workpiece and verify the dimensions and structure both inside and outside the workpiece using CT technology. It is capable of non-destructively inspecting defects inside small and complex workpieces, as well as accurately measuring internal dimensions and internal curved shapes.

Light shaping with transparent resin is ideal for confirming the fit of housings and analyzing flow paths. We use a material categorized as "high transparency" among light shaping resins, allowing for the production of mock-up products with enhanced transparency through post-processing (such as painting and polishing). Furthermore, since it is a moisture-resistant material within light shaping, it can also be used for tests and applications involving liquids. The speed of light shaping enables an overwhelming reduction in time, allowing for shape confirmation of transparent resin as early as the next day. Regarding the finishing level of transparent light shaping, the transparency varies depending on the direction of shaping, whether it is divided, and the finishing method. The cost and delivery time may also be affected by the finishing locations and levels, so we will make proposals tailored to your intended use and desired delivery date. Please feel free to consult with us.

High transparency and impactful mockups for exhibitions, as well as various visualization models for flow analysis, are of course ideal. Compared to complex shape machining, it allows for overwhelming time savings, and it is possible to produce integrated parts, including undercuts and hollow shapes that are difficult to machine. Method: Stereolithography, layer removal finishing, painting Material: Epoxy-based UV-curable resin (TSR-829) Lead time: Approximately 5 days to 1 week
