This process is similar to that of vacuum casting. The only difference being that instead if silicone rubber, the material used is aluminum filled epoxy.
Once the mould is made from this material, it can be put on a moulding machine and components can be moulded in actual material of choice. The mould life normally is upto 200 pieces.
These are primarily used to create multiple prototypes. Rapid prototyping techniques are not economical when more than one prototype needs to built for the same component. In these cases different rapid tooling techniques have been developed to manufacture 25-30 prototypes, few hundred to a few thousand prototypes and prototypes in excess of 50000 pieces.
