Case Study: Liberty Molds achieves error elimination and 50% faster mold design with 3D Systems' Cimatron

Liberty Molds Eliminates Errors and Reduces Design Time by 50% with Cimatron Software

Liberty Molds, Inc. and Allegiance Mold, LLC in Portage, MI are injection mold-making shops that produce complex, high‑tolerance custom prototype and production tooling. They needed to deliver high-quality molds on tight schedules, handle increasingly complex designs, and eliminate translation errors and rework that slowed production.

By adopting 3D Systems Cimatron integrated CAD/CAM software, the shops consolidated three separate programs into one streamlined system, eliminating translation errors and saving hundreds of hours of rework. Design time was cut by 50%, simulation tools caught problems before they reached the shop floor, tool build time dropped from 16 weeks to 10–12 weeks, onboarding accelerated, and the EDM package is projected to pay for itself within a year.
