Kyle Wohler, Sales Manager at RAMPF Group, Inc. – “RAKU® TOOL WB-1258 outperforms all other plastics in the pattern and mold industry. The polyurethane board was developed in partnership with foundry shops all over the world, resulting in an extremely abrasion-resistant material that produces more than 100,000 replications and machines 40 percent faster than its competitor products.”

Gary Verbeten, Manager Pattern Operation at Neenah Foundry, says – “The WB-1258 machines more accurately, it’s smooth and polishes better, it’s more durable, and wears really well. Overall, I would pay more money for a product that will significantly shorten lead times along with labor hours and costs. There is little to no clean up necessary when the pattern or core box comes off of the mill.”
