Vacuum casting technology offers a wide variety of materials to facilitate the creation of cast urethane parts, typically for functional test, pre-production evaluation and low volume production. Cast auto urethane parts are quick and inexpensive without the need to invest any metal tooling when quantities are only dozens of short runs, and can be delivered within weeks in most instances. Standard lead time Up to 10 copies within 15 working days Standard accuracy ±0.3% (with lower limit on ±0.3 mm on dimensions smaller than 100 mm) Minimum wall thickness To ensure that the mold is filled properly, a wall thickness of at least 0.75 mm is necessary. For best results, we recommend a wall thickness of at least 1.5 mm Maximum part dimensions The size of the mold is limited by the dimensions of the vacuum chamber (1900 x 900 x 750 mm) and by the volume of the product (maximum volume: 10 liters) Typical quantities Up to 25 copies per mold (depending on the mold's complexity and the casting materials) Surface structure High-quality surface finish comparable to injection molding. Advantages of Silicone Auto parts Vacuum Casting : Great for low volumes Self-coloured parts Low upfront investment Production like parts Massive range of materials Rubber like parts and over molds
