Product Description

Rapid Prototyping Vacuum Casting Silicone Molds with Custom Tolerance and Surface Finish

 

 

Rapid prototyping 3d vacuum casting silicone molds

 

Vacuum casting, also known as silicone mold, needs to be applied to silicone mold. That is, the product prototype is processed

using 3D printing or CNC, and then the silicone mold is made under vacuum conditions, and PA, POM, ABS and other materials

are poured under vacuum conditions, so as to copy the same parts as the prototype. It can achieve the strength and hardness

of ABS and other materials, and can also be equipped with colors according to customer requirements.

 

Advantages and disadvantages of vacuum casting

 

  • Shapes with smooth surfaces can be produced
  • Quality of the samples comparable to mass-produced injection molded parts
  • Inexpensive and short-term mold production
  • High reproduction accuracy
  • Various casting resins available that simulate series plastics
  • Integration of molded and standard parts such as threaded bolts into the plastic parts possible during casting
  • The processing temperature of the casting material must be realizable through the silicone mold

The vacuum casting production process is relatively manual and includes several steps.

 

 

 

Master Pattern Manufacturing

 

The master pattern is usually manufactured by SLA 3D printing or CNC machining The choice of method depends on the properties and shape of the part to be produced.

 

Creation of the silicone mold

 

The master pattern is used to create the imprint in the silicone mold, which will be used to duplicate the parts in the selected material and color. It is also possible to create different types of surfaces by polishing the mold impressions.

 

Material preparation and vacuum casting

 

The polyurethane material will be prepared and dyed in the selected color if necessary. Then the silicone mold is placed in the vacuum casting machine and the material is injected into it.

 

Demolding and solidification

 

Once the part is cast, the silicone mold is removed and the part is demolded manually. The piece is then put in the oven (a few minutes to a few hours depending on the size of the piece) and the casting operation is repeated several times.

 

Polishing and application of finishes

 

During this last step the piece will be deburred and hand finished, before applying the desired finishes (polishing, painting, marking etc.)

 

 

The benefits of 3D printing technology

 

  • Possibility of using flexible, transparent or rigid materials, with mechanical and thermal characteristics similar to those of mass-produced materials;
  • Numerous finishes ;
  • Possibility of overmolding and adding inserts;
  • 3D part tinted in the mass;
  • Wide range of technical resins;
  • Soft/rigid bi-material moldings.

Vacuum Casting Tolerances

 

 

Description

 

 

Tolerance Notes

 

Distance Dimensions

+/- 0.15 mm or +/- 0.45 mm per mm, whichever is larger, is typical. Irregular or overly-thick geometries may cause deviances or deflection due to shrinkage

 

Shrink Mitigation

A shrinkage rate of +0.15% can be expected due to thermal expansion of the liquid, and the response of the flexible mould

 

Surface Quality

Surface finish is externally smoothed to a satin or matte surface. Grow lines may be present on internal or difficult-to-access features. Polishing or custom finishes must be clearly defined and agreed upon at the point of order

 

Feature Definition

Sharp corners and text may appear slightly rounded

 

 

 

The choice between vacuum casting and 3D printing depends on the specific application and requirements of the part being produced.

For small to medium-sized production runs, vacuum casting may be more cost-effective and efficient, especially when using 3D printing

to create the master model. However, for one-off or highly customized parts, 3D printing may be the better option.
