ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method for producing three-dimensional articles from a computer aided design includes one or more mold modules, each containing a pin array containing a plurality of pin elements. The pin elements are moveable in response to a data file containing three-dimensional coordinates of the three-dimensional article to be molded wherein the coordinates have a resolution corresponding to the resolution of the pin elements in the pin array. By moving the pins to the various coordinates of the data set, a mold shape is provided for molding the three-dimensional design.
