The design of special tools and components in all industrial sectors is often one of the most sophisticated factors in the production process. In this area especially it is necessary to be able to build customized parts quickly and flexibly. Conventional processes for producing these types of parts are, how-ever, often costly, time consuming and technically highly complex. During the laser-sintering process, integrated cooling and tempering channels can be
built into the tool. This construction advantage leads to an improvement in the productivity of the tools and also in the quality of the injection-moulded parts. That in turn leads to a reduction in unit costs.
