Send 3D files (STEP, IGES or X_T), 2D drawings with tolerances, the LSR hardness and color, your estimated annual volume, and the application or standards the part must meet. No drawings yet? A physical sample or clear photos with key dimensions is enough to start.
Yes. We measure [and 3D-scan] your sample, rebuild it as a 3D CAD model and send it to you for approval. Mold design starts only after you confirm the part model.
LSR is injected cold into a heated mold (typically 150–200 °C) and cures there, while plastic is injected hot and cools. LSR molds therefore need a temperature-controlled cold runner, very tight shut-offs because LSR can flash through gaps of a few microns, careful venting, 2–3% shrinkage compensation and demolding designed for soft parts.
Yes. We design LSR + LSR and LSR + thermoplastic tools, and LSR overmolding on metal, plastic or electronic inserts. We also help you choose the substrate and a self-adhesive LSR grade for a strong bond without primers.
