3·
1 year agoThis is very good information.
To add another point, a few other differences: -Additive manufacturing (3d printing) can produce some shapes which are not possible using injection molding -Injection molding currently has access to a wider variety of materials due to its maturity (pelletized raw material)
FreeCAD is doing a really substantial rewrite right now to completely revamp their topological naming system, which resolve a meaningful amount of pain points. It may bring it far enough to be a viable option.
We’ll see.
