MANUFACTURING SHORT PRODUCTION SERIES
The VC technology allows to create fast a short production series. This method prove correct especially in the case of manufacturing a dozen or so dozens of pieces of a given element. In the case of larger models vacuum casting technology is much faster and cheaper than additive technologies (3D printing).
The VC is based on casting models using special resins (epoxy or polyurethane) poured into special silicone molds.
This method is repeatable and provides constant details geometry.
ADVANTAGES:
FAST PRODUCTION
Even within 48H from master model to finished casts.
REPETBILITY
We can produce up to several dozen parts/elements/objects from one mold.
MULTIMATERIAL
One mold allows to cast the same detail using resins with different properties.
DOMENSIONS:
Do not differ from master model.
PRECISION AND ACCURACY
Silicone molds perfectly reflect the texture of the model surface.
PROCESS
To make the casts a master model is needed. It can be provided by the customer or made by us based on the STL file.
Then a special silicone mold is created, consisting of at least two parts.
The next step is choosing the proper resin.
The last stage is making castings, using previously prepared silicone molds.
