What is the difference between a mold and a handboard?
Although there are so many differences between planks and mould, but they still have contact, generally use hand-board model to the customer to confirm the shape first, confirmed to open mold production. The cost of many physical molds is generally high, with large molds valued at 100,000 or even millions, especially in the medical industry. If there is a structural unsound or other problem in the process of installing the die, it will be very large. The handboard model can solve the problem of this loss, reducing the risk of making physical models.
Hand, is simply the sample of the product, after your design drawings, design products generally can't be perfect, can't even use, direct production once the defective will be scrapped entirely, greatly waste of manpower and material resources and time. And hand in general, is one of the few samples, short production cycle, loss less manpower, quickly find out the shortage of the product design and improvement, provide sufficient basis for product production. Because of this, some places and call it "the first board", is the first sample products, that is, more image description of the meaning of the plank, and in Japan, hand and is called the "hand", its English name is "rapid prototype". Molds are a kind of production tool that can produce parts that have certain shapes and sizes. People also is usually said mold, such as TV sets, telephone shell, plastic buckets and other products, is the software into a mold cooling injection molding plastic heating. The steamed rice cooker is also made of a metal plate that is pressed into this shape. Everything is made out of molds. You can say that there is no production without molds
Hand refers to do manual model, general use plastic stick on machine tools or machining centers or in the form of a similar casting, made by hand, not mass production. And open mode is to point to the processing mould first, then use mould injection molding or blow moulding moulding to produce the product. In general, it is used to confirm the shape of the customer by hand plate mould.
