This chapter discusses how Additive Manufacturing can be used to develop tooling solutions. Although AM is not well-suited to high-volume production for many types of geometries and materials, it does have unique benefit when producing tools for traditional volume manufacturing operations. This can be from the perspective of using AM to create patterns for parts where the materials or properties needed in those parts are not currently available using AM or for longer run tooling where AM may be able to simplify the process chain or improve the performance of the tool. Commonly referred to as rapid tooling, we discuss here how AM can contribute to tool-making for product manufacturing processes.
