Frequently Asked Questions about Parts Processing

Here are the answers you are looking for. If you want to learn more, please contact your customer representative.


Vacuum Casting

What are your tolerance standards for silicone mold duplication? Can they achieve ±0.1mm accuracy?

Our standard tolerance for silicone mold duplication is ±0.3mm (per ASTM D2000). For ±0.1mm precision, we implement the following measures:


Low-shrinkage silicone: Materials with shrinkage rates <0.1% (e.g., Dragon Skin™ FX-Pro).

Multi-stage pressure control: Vacuum casting with gradient pressure (0.8–1.2 bar).

CNC machining allowances: Critical dimensions ±0.05mm post-casting machining margins.

What is the lifespan of silicone molds? What is the maximum output per mold?

Mold lifespan varies by material grade:

Standard silicone (e.g., Smooth-Sil 940): 20–30 parts.

High-performance silicone (e.g., Zhermack ZA 8): 50–100 parts.

Composite molds with metal reinforcement: Up to 200 parts.

Are small-batch orders (e.g., 50 units) feasible? How do you optimize costs?

Yes. We optimize costs through:

Mold reuse: Multiple batches within a total lifespan.

Multi-cavity layout optimization: 40% material utilization improvement.

No MOQ: Unit price = material cost ×1.15 (15% loss factor).

What level of surface detail replication can you achieve (e.g., textures, logos)?

Surface replication is classified per VDI 3400:

Class A: Ra ≤0.8μm (replicates 10μm-level textures).

Class B: Ra ≤1.6μm (general logos/patterns).

3D laser-engraved master molds: ±5μm accuracy.

How do you prevent bubbles and delamination in multi-material insert casting?

For metal/plastic inserts:

Pre-heating inserts: 80°C to minimize thermal stress.

Extended degassing: Vacuum ≤5mbar for 15 minutes.

Interface enhancers: e.g., Loctite 770 for silicone-insert bonding.
