With 3D sand printing, designers only have to worry about whether and where the mold will be split later, how cores could be simplified, if they want to, not if they just want to try something out briefly. \n<br><br> \n\nThis is particularly advantageous for lightweight construction, as the design freedom associated with 3D printing creates scope for experimentation and enables organic designs and topology optimizations. Moulds created using 3D sand printing can also be cast in steel, iron, aluminum or special alloys. The leap into series production is very simple from here &#8211; only the method of mold production changes.  \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-663f0ee elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"663f0ee\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2>Rapid prototyping from a single source  <\/h2>\nThe process is very simple.
