About our Compression Molding Process
How it Works
Compression molding uses heat and pressure to shape raw silicone or rubber material within a mold. This method is effective for creating durable parts with complex designs and is suitable for both prototypes and production runs
What Can You Make?
Compression molding enables us to create a variety of custom parts like gaskets, seals, diaphragms, and dampening pads. This process is ideal for applications in medical, military, and industrial fields for rubber parts under various conditions and requirements.
Fused Deposition Molding (FDM)
FDM 3D printing works well for creating functional prototypes at low-cost with a range of materials like ABS, PLA, and PETG. FDM offers good mechanical strength, but the surface finish can be rough, and the parts may have visible layer lines.
