Traditional mold fabrication—whether CNC machining or metal tooling—can be slow, expensive, and impractical for small production runs. With high-temperature SLA 3D printing, we can now produce precise, durable molds in a fraction of the time and cost, making it ideal for prototyping, low-volume manufacturing, and specialty parts.
At 3D Labs by Technotronic Futuristics, we manufacture fully functional high-temp resin molds that deliver exceptional detail reproduction, thermal performance, and dimensional stability. These molds are suitable for casting silicones, wax, low-temperature thermoplastics, and specialized industrial materials.
High-temperature SLA materials are formulated to withstand elevated thermal loads, resist warping, and maintain dimensional accuracy during casting. Key benefits include:
These qualities make high-temp SLA a reliable substitute for aluminum or steel tooling in many applications.
The mold shown above was printed using our industrial SLA system, engineered specifically for high-temperature applications.
🟧 Heat-Resistant Performance
Designed to withstand casting temperatures without deformation.
🟦 Superior Surface Finish
Smooth cavity walls deliver professional-quality molded parts.
⬜ High Dimensional Precision
Critical alignment features, edges, and cavity details are reproduced with exceptional accuracy.
🟡 Cost-Effective Tooling Solution
No CNC machining, no long lead times — perfect for small batches and rapid testing.
This mold was ready for use within a day, drastically reducing production time and giving our client a fast, functional solution.
1. Faster Turnaround Than Machined Molds
Digital fabrication allows you to go from CAD to mold in hours, not weeks.
2. Affordable for Low-Volume Production
Ideal for startups, R&D labs, and custom manufacturers.
3. Perfect for Testing & Iteration
Quickly evaluate part geometry before committing to expensive metal tooling.
4. High Accuracy and Smooth Finish
SLA printing produces injection-mold–like surfaces without polishing.
5. Lightweight, Durable, and Repeatable
Excellent for silicone molding, thermoforming, wax casting, and low-temp plastics.
“If your manufacturing process requires repeatability and precision, SLA molds are an excellent option.” 3D Labs
