SILICONE TOOLING & VACUUM CASTING
The vacuum casting process provides components which are comparable with the final product both in appearance and properties, making the parts very good for fit, function and market testing.
This method of manufacture can also be used for the production of components that do not justify the investment in hard tooling for the number of parts required per year. Depending on the complexity of the part a maximum of 25 parts can be produced using the vacuum casting process from a single tool.
Materials on offer range from soft flexible rubbers to rigid plastics, with properties optically clear, UL 94 V/O approved, high impact and wear properties. A range of production stimulant materials are also on offer ranging from ABS, Polypropylene, Polycarbonate, PMMA to TPE.
Delivery usually 5 to 10 days (dependant on part size and quantity of parts)
Accuracy ± 0.10mm (dependant on master used)
Maximum size – please enquire
