Silicone rubber overmolding.

Silicone to metal bonding. We use aluminum molds that offer cost efficient tooling producing parts from a range of thermoplastic and liquid silicone rubber materials. Plus non drafted areas can be difficult to remove. With substrate molds we can maintain a machining tolerance of 0 003 in.

Undercuts support overmolding but these part features add costs and complexity to the mold. Our rapid overmolding and insert molding processes produce custom prototypes and on demand production parts in as fast as 15 days. Overmolding an lsr with one durometer and color. Rubber to metal bonding and silicone overmolding this is one third of our business we are the experts in this segment asian partner for overmolding and rubber to metal bonded of custom molded rubber silicone lsr serving all segments of overmolding in the silicone molding and rubber molding applications.

These subcomponents are commonly termed inserts as they are inserted into the mold typical metal inserts include screw machine parts metal stampings and powdered metal shapes.

We are prepared to take your project from its earliest phases to being a finished product. Liquid silicone overmolding is a process for molding silicone rubber onto a base material or object such as a housing wire or handle to create a composite component.

0 08mm with an included resin tolerance that can be greater but no. For example a silicone over molding process may be used for providing a grip surface to a smooth plastic handle a flexible septum on a hard plastic surface or for encapsulating an electronics assembly for mounting or protection from the environment. Minimum part volume is 0 025 cu. Silicone over molding is a process that is used to cover bond or encapsulate an existing part with silicone material.

When referring to overmolding thermoplastics or other silicones overmolding may also be called two shot molding. Rubber to metal bonding. For product designers it s also important to remember that few injection molders are experts in overmolding liquid silicone rubber lsr to plastics. Mm silicone rubber height may be limited if using a silicone as the overmold material and deeper parts are limited to a smaller outline.
