Because of the flexibility of the silicone, reverse draft, inserts and more easily dealt with than in injection molding. Silicone molds are capable of reproducing incredible detail, including custom textures. Urethane casting provides fast turnaround.

Urethane Casting is most commonly used during the prototyping process, and can generally be expected to hold +/-0.010” tolerances with +/-0.0015 in/in (parts larger than 20” may result in tolerances even beyond those stated). When multiple parts are needed, urethane casting can be used to fill the gap between prototype and production. Urethane prototypes can be of nearly any size and shape and can be color matched by either a pantone number or a color chip.

The Advantage of Urethane Casting:

1. Durability

Polyurethane cast materials are available in rigid or flexible end-plastics. Urethane casting parts are generally as tough or tougher than injection molded pieces, and are significantly stronger than 3D printed counterparts.

2.  Scalability

Urethane casting process is optimal for low-volume production for quantities of one to several hundred. On average, a silicone mold can accurately cast about 20-50 parts. The maximum, quantity varies based on part design and material cast.

3.  Material Selection

We offer a wide range of rigid and flexible urethane cast materials, from very soft and flexible to extremely rigid and impact resistant. Parts are cast in a color that is blended to your specifications.

4.  Color Matching

The urethane casting process is capable of reproducing small details. Little to no finishing is required, because the desired textures and finish levels are applied to the master pattern.

5.  Rapid Turnaround

Urethane cast parts are shipped within 15 business days, depending on order specification and volume. By contrast, injection molded parts can take months to build.
