A broadly used non-reactive compound, LSR is a perfect seal material for aerospace, automotive and consumer components. Through PolyJet technology, companies can now 3D print highly detailed LSR molds to be be used for functional testing and low-run production. Compared to manual casting methods, PolyJet can save significant time and labor while providing the same quality and details of production-grade LSR. http://cimquesttv.wistia.com/medias/16vlznveng?embedType=async&videoFoam=true&videoWidth=640
