Vacuum casting Hard plastic Parts

Vacuum casting Hard Plastic Parts

The principle of Vacuum casting:

Using 3D printing or CNC processing to produce prototype parts of the product, a silicone mold is made in vacuum state, and materials such as PU, transparent PU, POM like, ABS are used for pouring in vacuum state to replicate the same replica as the prototype part

Application of Vacuum casting service:

In the process of making prototype, sometimes customers may need to make small batches. If use CNC processing, the cost will be relatively high. At this time, silicone vacuum casting can be used. Robotic silicone vacuum casting is quite common in daily production because customers usually use this type of prototype to make products, and the quantity produced is not too small. In this case, using vacuum casting is more reasonable, which can help enterprises reduce costs and save time.

Small Batch Robot silicone Vacuum Casting - Low Cost

This is a robot silicone vacuum casting project that YYI TECH has done. Due to the limited budget of the customer, we recommend using silicone vacuum casting for processing. Moreover, for products like robots, if the mold is opened recklessly, the losses caused by the project failure will be very significant. Therefore, in order to reduce risks, it is better to adopt a prudent approach. This project mainly involves the following steps:

1. Creating prototypes

Create a prototype through 3D printing or CNC machining. Due to the large size of the robot and the high cost of 3D printing, CNC machining is used here.

2. Making silicone molds

After completing the prototype, use it to make a silicone mold. Due to the impact of thermal expansion and contraction on the products produced by the robot silicone re molding, the silicone mold is generally made slightly larger. After cooling, it can reach the size desired by the customer.

3. Silicone mold replication

After finished the silicone mold, we can use it for replication. Due to the deformation of the mold during the production process,  generally one mold can only produce 15pcs parts

4.Remove the silicone mold

After the robot completes the silicone re molding step, the mold can be cut open to remove the workpiece inside.
