6 Advantages of 3D Printing vs Injection Molding

3D printing and injection molding have a lot in common. Both of these manufacturing processes are meant to make a designer’s vision a reality as painlessly as possible. Both 3D printing and injection molding are great at producing prototypes or replacement parts, among many things. Manufacturing parts have traditionally been performed with injection molding. That process entails injecting heated material into a metal mold and once cooled the now solid object is ejected as a solid part. Howe
