Services » Vacuum Casting

Vacuum casting of polyurethane resins from silicon rubber tooling offers many advantages.

• Production representative parts in a very short time period, as little as 2-3 days from approval of a master model.
• The ability to closely match a wide range of production materials including ABS, PP,PC , Nylon, Rubber etc.
• A wide range of colours are available, as well as water clear. Other features that can be accommodated include heat resistant, fire retardant and live hinge.
• Intricate components can be produced with a wall thickness as low as 0.4mm, as can highly complex insert mouldings.
• Over mouldings can be undertaken, allowing plastics, rubbers and metal to be incorporated into one component.
• Ideal for low volume production runs where conventional injection mould tooling would be prohibitively expensive.
• The ability to produce up to 200 waxes from a tool for use in investment casting.
