Product Description
Silicone Rubber Mold Vacuum Casting Service
Crida silicone vacuum casting delivers high-precision plastic parts for rapid prototyping and small batch production. This advanced process combines 3D printing, CNC machining, and vacuum technology to create detailed components with exceptional dimensional accuracy.
Process Overview
The manufacturing process begins with high-precision prototype creation using 3D printing or CNC machining. The prototype is then encased in liquid silicone, which undergoes vacuum treatment and curing to create a flexible, high-detail replication mold. Two-component polyurethane resin is then mixed, degassed, and injected into the silicone mold under vacuum conditions, ensuring bubble-free filling and excellent surface quality.
Key Advantages
- Cost-effective small batch production without expensive metal tooling
- Rapid turnaround - from prototype to finished parts in days
- High dimensional accuracy with tolerances of ±0.1-0.2mm
- Excellent surface finish and detail replication
- Flexible design modifications and customization options

Frequently Asked Questions
What are Crida silicone vacuum casting parts?
These are precision plastic components manufactured using silicone molds in a vacuum environment. The process begins with 3D printed or CNC machined prototypes, followed by silicone mold creation and polyurethane resin casting, resulting in parts with high dimensional accuracy and excellent surface finish.
What materials can be used for vacuum casting?
Primarily polyurethane (PU) resins that can simulate various plastic properties including ABS, PC, PMMA, PP, POM, and rubber-like materials.
What is the dimensional accuracy achievable?
Maximum tolerances can reach ±0.05mm, though typical production tolerances are ±0.1-0.2mm depending on part complexity and design requirements.
What production scale is suitable for this process?
Ideal for small batch production and prototyping, with each silicone mold typically producing 15-20 parts.
