I have an engineer contact that reached out to me regarding getting some prototype parts cut from EPP foam. I thought about mounting a wood router to my mill but I'm not sure it's worth the trouble and refered him out to a local shop that has a 5 axis router.
Is there a way to mold prototype EPP foam parts without specialized equipment? I've seen 3d printed mold inserts can be used for prototyping injection molding hard plastics and I've seen the really basic small low pressure injection molding machines for hard plastics and they have decent results when they are used within their constraints. Is there a way to accomplish the same with EPP foam?
