This week’s video is about making a silicone mold for a 3D printed electromagnetic coil ring retainer.
I 3D print a coil ring retainer from the CAD data supplied by my client.Next, I use the 3D printed part as the master part to make a silicone mold. Once the silicone mold has cured.Then I test cast a part in the mold to make sure the mold is free from defects. Once the part is cured, I trim the piece flush.
