Vacuum casting is a highly effective production process for making high quality plastic parts with a good finish. At WHALE STONE 3D, our advanced resources enable us to provide vacuum casting services suitable for many industrial sectors such as automotive, medical devices or consumer electronics. Due to our skills in this process, we can manufacture a highly precise part with a close-to-injection molded finishes.
The very first step of manufacturing parts via vacuum casting is to manufacture a master model which is built using either SLA or SLS 3d printing technologies. After this master model is finished for silicone mold making it is ready for use. Once the mold is prepared liquid resin is applied in the mold with the application of a vacuum so as to forcefully eliminate any imperfections on the surface of the coating material with the resin. After the resin has been cured in the mold, the mold itself is opened and the part is taken out and is in readiness for use or any further production. This technique is particularly beneficial for low and medium volume production, where conventional injection molding would be prohibitive and inefficient.
The accuracy and precision of vacuum casting effectively contribute to quality and surface and size characteristics of the manufactured parts. Manufacturing preparation assists in the thermoses production as they replicate every tiny detail of the master model preparing the details very accurately. Provision of prototypes in the exact specifications required by the clients either for prototyping purposes or in the manufacture of the final components is what we excel at WHALE STONE 3D.
Vacuum casting is also flawless concerning more ability to play around with different materials. WHALE STONE 3D has a lot of various resins that can be used to make parts with a variety of properties from stiff and durable to soft and sweet like resin materials. This makes vacuum casting the most appropriate manufacturing technique for parts that serve certain mechanical and cosmetic purposes to be tested or used.
There are two further advantages which are the speed and its cost savings as well. This is because the silicone molds are cheap and as such, they can be manufactured fast. It, therefore, applies in these industries where production of small parts is required for a very short period of time. At WHALE STONE 3D, the optimized workflow enables timely delivery of quality parts to our customers hence they remain on track financially and timewise.
As such, vacuum casting will be effective when you have to manufacture parts that are advanced and may not be able to be carried out via any traditional manufacturing methods. As casting in elastomers offers certain design freedom, more elaborate shapes and undercuts can be made within such structures. WHALE STONE 3D has strong commitment to its customers to achieve the fidelity of their models irrespective of how intricate they might be.
Last week we were working on several projects at WHALE STONE 3D and aimed to level up vacuum casting. That's why our comments were perfect competition, not only enhancing the presentation of objects but also improving the client’s experience. Whatever the specifications, whether you would want a prototype to be tested out or looking for a small production run, we are able to deliver as per your requirements.
Last but not least, vacuum casting technology is reliable when high-quality plastic parts replica are manufactured. WHALE STONE 3D offers a variety of vacuum casting services that have been created incorporating the client’s specific needs. Thanks to the latest technology we possess and variety of materials we use together with upholding quality Assurance we offer cost effective and precise solutions to industries that require parts with high reproduction and details.
