Preparing a 3D printed master
Choose orientation to reduce layer and support marks on critical surfaces. Clean and dry the master, then test whether coatings or resin residue interfere with mould curing. Recheck critical dimensions after sanding and coating, as finishing can change the fit.
Product-specific checks
Compare internal compartment dimensions with the actual objects to be stored. Narrow deep pockets can trap air, while thin partitions can be stressed during release. Check access to each pocket, the bottom finish and partition strength on the sample.
Application and sample checks
Define finished dimensions, casting material and critical surfaces first. Record production variables and reassess approval whenever the material or master changes; an earlier sample does not automatically validate a revised process.
