Vacuum Casting

Taking into account the uneconomical cost of manufacturing a steel injection moulding tool, especially if only a low number of parts are required, 3D Prototyping can now offer vacuum casting and silicone moulding facilities to you at a cost effective and more efficient way of producing 10 – 500 parts in a range of materials.

3D Prototyping can quote and produce your low volume parts simply by providing either an IGES, STEP or X_T file. Lead times are approximately 2-3 weeks.

3D Prototyping have a range of materials now available, including:

ABS: Surfaces can be metalised, chromed and vacuum metalised or painted. Widely used for functional applications.
Glass filled Nylon (GF 15%) for high strength in load testing.
Polypropylene, Polycarbonate and rubber, in various Shore hardness’s,
Other materials available on request, just speak with one of 3D Prototyping’s qualified team
