Your making, multiplied.
What it is
Pressure forming, on the desktop
Pressure forming is an industrial grade manufacturing process, used to make molds and parts really quickly. By utilising pressure when forming heated sheet material, pressure forming can capture detail finer than a human hair and perfectly sharp edges. The process of making a mold takes just 1 minute.
Having the scope to make molds for more intricate and larger pieces is so exciting

How It Works
high resolution molds & parts in 1 minute
The Multiplier’s tanks fill with compressed air and pressurise the dome to 4 atmospheres.
The pressure forces the heated sheet of material into every detail of your creation.
Creating high-resolution molds or parts in a matter of minutes.
