Metal additive manufacturing of conformal cooling channels in plastic injection molds with high number of design variables

Metal additive manufacturing (MAM) is an effective way to fabricate conformal cooling channels (CCCs), which follow the curves of the plastic product in the mold body of the plastic injection. CCCs have free-curved pathways thanks to the design & manufacturing flexibilities of the MAM process so...
