In die casting applications, cycle time and thermal regulation are critical factors influencing production efficiency and part quality. Since 2020, EOS and AarKel Tool and Die have collaborated to deliver high-performance 3D-printed components to the die cast and plastic injection tooling industries. By utilizing Laser Powder Bed Fusion (L-PBF) technology with EOS M400 1kW laser systems, AarKel has set new benchmarks in the manufacturing of shot blocks from high-performance tool steel materials. These additively manufactured components provide enhanced thermal management and significantly reduce overall cycle times. This cutting-edge technology is transforming the die casting industry, delivering improved performance and efficiency.
