We focus on the silicone mold vacuum casting process, and achieve rapid prototyping and small-batch production with a dimensional tolerance of ±0.05mm through high-precision mold technology. It is suitable for functional verification and market testing in the fields of automobiles, medical care, electronics, etc., and supports transparent, flexible, high-temperature resistant and other characteristic materials. The life of a single silicone mold can reach 50-100 pieces.

Common questions
What is the minimum order quantity?
Supports 1 piece minimum order, and 50 pieces or more can enjoy unit price gradient discounts
Can the internal bubble problem of transparent parts be reproduced?
Use secondary vacuum degassing process to ensure that the haze value of transparent parts is <2% (ASTM D1003 standard)
What are the options for surface treatment?
Supports sandblasting (Ra 1.6-6.3μm), UV coating (hardness 3H), pad printing (positioning accuracy ±0.1mm)
