Class 101: This is the biggest category. It&#;s often used for massive production runs. The molds are built to endure big volumes and are commonly used in mass production.
Class 102: This is for medium to big production runs. It&#;s built to be tougher and resist corrosion, so it can handle runs that are not as big as Class 101.
Class 103: This is for medium production runs. It&#;s built to be more accurate, so it can handle runs that require really good parts.
Class 104: This is for low to mid-sized production runs. It&#;s built to be versatile, so it can handle runs that require options and alternatives.
