CNC machining and vacuum casting belong to rapid prototyping processes. Let’s take a closer look at their distinctions: Process In CNC machining, the cutter on the CNC equipment cuts off extra material based on the path set by the program to produce...
Generally, vacuum casting has lower tooling costs, so it works better for prototyping and short runs. Injection molding has higher startup costs but excels at high-volume production and consistency. Here is a comparison of vacuum casting and injection molding: ...
