CarbonFoam offers superior tooling than other more common metal and clay based methods. With the boom of Carbon Foam innovation, we have been able to provide a simpler, stronger, and safer material.
Carbon Foam can be used for a variety of different applications, including conventional tooling. Carbon Foam is a very sturdy material - innovations with carbon fiber-reinforced resins create a higher strength-to-weight ratio - therefore providing more stiffness and making tools less susceptible to corrosion.
Benefits of Carbon Foam Composite Tooling:
Simplifying Tool Design:
Let us demonstrate how Carbon Foam tooling provides a simplified design, shortened manufacturing time, and an overall improvement to fabrication costs. Learn more about how our Carbon Foam can help your business today!
Thermal Properties:
Carbon Foam is easily shaped offering a unique ability to be carved and sanded. The finished mold has the strength to keep fine edges sharp and curves exact to specification.
High Performance Material:
With lower manufacturing costs and lightweight materials, Carbon Foam composite tooling manufacturing is both a rapid and durable tooling method. Tooling is now easier to repair with developments being made in surface coatings, including continuous and chopped fiber with BMI resins.
