The graphite-mold/ZA-12 process begins with a computer-generated image of the part. This image of a part for a medical diagnostic device was created with 3D solid-modeling CAD software.

It also supplies graphite molds for the manufacture of railroad car wheels, which are cast whole from molten steel, and molds for diamond drill bits used to drill oil and gas wells.

Graphite molds can also be used for the medical industry, to create parts for the coating of heart valves, the LED market for processing wafers, fuel cell flow fields and solar applications.

Graphite molding lets a new industrial camera meet market deadlines.
