Subtractive manufacturing (computer numerical control, or CNC machining) Essentially involves subtracting or cutting from a block of material to create an end product. With many different forms (milling, turning, laser cutting, wire EDM, and carving) and Substractive manufacturing is used for a wide variety of prototyping, production and assembly line applications. Both technologies have their strengths and weaknesses when it comes to a product development and the manufacturing environment.

Prototype injection molds shorten the entire product development cycle and become the source of drive innovation. In the past, companies sometimes chose to postpone or abandon design updates for new products, given the large capital investment required to create new mold. By reducing mold preparation time and enabling existing design tools to be quickly updated, the Prototyp injection molding enables companies to withstand more frequent replacement and improvement of molds. It enables the mold design cycle to keep pace with the new product design cycle.
