Vacuum casting delivers high-fidelity duplicates from a master model, enabling you to produce 5–100 parts with injection molding–grade finishes—all within days. Achieve consistent, functional, and visually appealing plastic components without the expense or lead time of full tooling.
Cost-Effective for Short Runs: Get professional-quality parts at a fraction of the cost of hard tooling.
Fast Turnaround: Deliver small batches in 1–2 weeks—ideal for multiple iterations or bridge production.
Material Versatility: Choose from a wide range of polyurethane resins that simulate ABS, PP, TPU, or polycarbonate.
Key Benefits for Your Projects
Functional Prototypes – Test fit, form, and function early using durable, engineering-grade materials.
Marketing & Sales Assets – Create production-style visuals for photos, trade shows, and demos.
Bridge & Pilot Runs – Fulfill low-volume production needs while tooling is underway.
Materials We Offer
Rigid ABS-like and PC-like resins for robust prototypes
Flexible TPU-like resins for soft-touch and durability testing
Translucent, high-gloss, or color-matched options to meet aesthetic and functional requirements
Working Process
1
Master Model Creation
We use high-resolution 3D printing or CNC machining to create a precise master prototype.
2
Silicone Mold Fabrication
The master is encased in silicone under vacuum to eliminate air bubbles and ensure mold integrity.
3
Resin Casting & Curing
We pour your chosen polyurethane resin into the mold and allow it to cure, delivering near-identical duplicates.
4
Post-Processing
Each part undergoes quality checks and detailed finishing—polishing, tapping, printing, spraying, plating or hand-drawing as needed.
5
Prompt Delivery
Packaged carefully and shipped using reliable logistics channels, locally or globally.
Applications That Shine
Design Verification – Evaluate ergonomics and aesthetics in real-world use.
Pre-Production Validation – Confirm that your design works as intended before full tooling.
Customer Demos & Show Samples – Present your product in its best light with polished finish and correct materials.
