Portland, OR – 2/28/25 – RapidMade Inc., a leader in advanced manufacturing and 3D printing solutions, announces the expansion of its Freeform Injection Molding (FIM) offerings. The company now provides FIM as a service for end-use parts manufacturing while also selling 3D printing and molding equipment, enabling customers to integrate this groundbreaking technology into their own production workflows.
FIM combines the flexibility of 3D-printed molds with the precision of injection molding, delivering cost-effective and rapid tooling solutions. Unlike traditional metal molds, FIM utilizes high-resolution, additively manufactured molds, reducing lead times and production costs while allowing for complex geometries and small-batch production.
“With Freeform Injection Molding, we’re eliminating the constraints of conventional tooling,” said Micah Chaban, Founder of RapidMade Inc. “By offering both an end-use parts service and the technology itself, we empower manufacturers to iterate faster, reduce costs, and produce intricate parts that were previously unfeasible.”
RapidMade’s FIM solutions support a wide range of materials, including thermoplastics, elastomers. The company’s expertise in designing and optimizing 3D-printed molds ensures high-quality, production-grade parts with unmatched speed and flexibility.
“Customers can now choose the solution that best fits their needs,” said Micah Chaban, VP of Sales. “Whether they require a turnkey service for molded parts or want to invest in their own FIM production capabilities, we provide the expertise and equipment to make it happen.”
“Freeform Injection Molding is not a replacement for steel tooling but a powerful complement. By prototyping in the exact production resin, manufacturers can refine designs with greater confidence before investing in traditional molds. For low-volume production, FIM provides an alternative, eliminating the need for metal tooling altogether.”
By integrating 3D printing and injection molding, RapidMade Inc. is driving the next generation of manufacturing, enabling businesses to achieve unprecedented efficiency and innovation.
