About Silicone Molding Services
Silicone molding services produce molded components that are made from silicone or liquid silicone rubber. Silicone rubber is a two-component, synthetic, flexible, rubber-like material made from silicone elastomers that can be cured at room temperature into a solid elastomer for use in molding. Silicone rubber is heat resistant, durable, and free of allergens or leachable chemicals. Liquid silicone is similar to regular silicone, but has different processing characteristics. It is purchased as a two-part raw material with a grease-like viscosity. When selecting silicone molding services, parameters to consider include molding processes, services offered, certification and quality requirements, and regional preference.
Silicone molding services perform processes such as cast molding, compression molding, dip molding, injection molding, and liquid injection molding (LIM). Cast molding services pour the liquid material is poured into an open mold. Compression molding services press a slug of silicone between two heated mold-halves. Generally, they use vertical presses instead of with horizontal presses. Dip molding services perform a process similar to hot dip coating, an operation in which the finished product is the fused plastisol stripped from the dipped mold. Injection molding services use a molding process that supplies the rubber to the injection machine's barrel-and-nozzle assembly on a continual basis. The rubber is a high-consistency silicone rubber (HCR) known as gum stock. Liquid injection molding (LIM) services are silicone molding services which use a high-viscosity liquid which comes in two parts: Part A and Part B. Both are injected into a heated mold.
