On April 23, 2025, the Shenzhen Mold Technology Society and Shanghai ESU Laser Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "ESU") jointly held the "Mold 3D Printing Technology Exchange Conference" at the Longhua Youth Entrepreneurship Park in Shenzhen. The event attracted numerous representatives from mold manufacturing enterprises to discuss the application prospects of 3D printing technology in mold manufacturing and the importance of integrated solutions.

On site technical exchange meeting

With the advancement of Industry 4.0, 3D printing technology has emerged as a critical tool in mold manufacturing. Traditional mold-making processes face challenges such as lengthy production cycles, high costs, and design limitations, while 3D printing offers rapid prototyping, complex structure fabrication, and high material utilization efficiency, gradually transforming the industry landscape.

However, adopting 3D printing is not merely about procuring equipment—it requires specialized machinery, tailored materials, proprietary processes, and extensive technical expertise to fully unlock its potential.

At this exchange meeting, ESU showcased its "Overall Solution for Mold 3D Printing", aimed at helping mold companies fully master 3D printing technology, improve production efficiency, and reduce manufacturing costs. After comprehensively and truthfully understanding the user's needs and pain points, ESU's professional team conducts a feasibility analysis of the overall solution for the user, including configuring mold 3D printing specialized equipment, specialized materials, specialized processes, supporting auxiliary equipment, production site planning, training of engineering and technical personnel, and providing long-term operation and maintenance services for the user.

We are not just a company that provides 3D printing processing services, but also a company that offers comprehensive solutions from equipment, materials, processes to services and training. ”Zhang Jun, General Manager of ESU Marketing Center, stated at the meeting that "ESU entered the mold industry in 2007 and started researching mold 3D printing technology in 2018. We focus on developing specialized equipment, materials, and processes, and are committed to helping mold companies transition from traditional manufacturing to intelligent manufacturing. ”

Speech by Zhang Jun, General Manager of Marketing Center

The exchange meeting of ESU is not only a technical demonstration, but also an important measure to promote the transformation of the mold industry. The popularization and application of 3D printing technology will greatly improve the efficiency and quality of mold manufacturing, and promote the development of the entire industry towards intelligence and digitization.
