Hi!
It takes about 15 minutes to make one part about 0.600" diameter, 0.800 heigth with about 40 holes 0.070dia, 0.750 deep, in PEEK. Tolerances +/- 0.001"
I wonder if this kind of parts can be made faster and at lower cost with rapid prototyping methods (laser sintering, 3D printing, etc). What is the tolerance I can get with them? Can be used with PEEK?
Altough we have a machine dedicated to this jobs, the average order is about 20 parts, so molding is out of the question.
Everardo.
P.D. Is this the right forum to this question?
