Maptek injection moulds

Three plastic injection moulds were designed and manufactured for an updated 3D Laser Scanner project for Maptek, including all CAD, CAM and CNC work. Mould flow analysis was used to check for filling and shrinkage issues as well as optimising gating positions. The part designs were refined by Maptek in consultation with Brook Engineering to ensure good filling and ejection. One mould featured a second cavity for over-moulding a rubbery type material as a hand grip.
