Precision PU ABS ABS Plastic Spare Parts Vacuum Casting Molding Product By Silicone Mould

Vacuum casting or urethane casting is a technology that combines silicone molds and a 3D printed master pattern to create short-run, rigid parts with production-level quality. The process hardens thermoplastic polyurethane inside silicon or epoxy molds. The result is vacuum casting parts with the same shapes as the original master models. The final dimensions of the vacuum casting parts will depend on the master model, part geometry, and the material chosen.

As a leading vacuum casting manufacturer, Race offers low-cost fabrication of high-quality plastic parts. This technology eliminates the need for expensive upfront investments. Our vacuum casting services offer the complete solution for creating excellent quality prototypes and low-volume production parts.

Technical specifications of vacuum casting

Vacuum casting is a process that uses a vacuum to remove the air from the mould. This leaves a smooth surface on the castings and results in minimal defects. It is often used for small parts and thin-walled parts. Some general specifications of the process are the following:

General applications of vacuum casting

Vacuum casting is a versatile process with many applications in different industries. The ability of the process to create intricate and precise components makes it an ideal choice for high-quality results.

• Medical implants: Vacuum casting is widely used in the medical industry to fabricate complex parts and components. It can be used to make implants and prosthetics.
• Automotive industry: Automotive parts are often manufactured through vacuum casting due to the process’s ability to create highly detailed components. Automobile parts such as intake manifolds, exhaust systems, and body panels can benefit from the superior accuracy and repeatability of silicone vacuum casting.
• Food Industry: The process is often used to manufacture intricate parts for the food industry. It can create moulds, packaging components, and other complex shapes needed in food production operations.
• Aerospace components: This process can be used to fabricate precision aerospace components. Due to its superior accuracy, repeatability, and ability to create intricate detail, components such as air ducts, fuel systems, and even some parts of aeroplanes’ exteriors are often created through vacuum casting.
• Consumer goods: Vacuum casting can manufacture complex consumer goods such as toys and sporting equipment. The process can create highly precise parts that are perfect for consumer use.
