Advantages of Urethane Casting – Part 1: Speed

Urethane casting has several advantages over other plastic manufacturing processes like injection molding and additive manufacturing (3D printing). It is fast, inexpensive, and produces high-quality parts. This week we’ll take a look at the first advantage: speed. The urethane casting process is very fast because the silicone molds used to make parts via this process are created very quickly, especially compared to the hard tooling used in injection molding. It is ideal for low-volume production, when quantities do not justify [...]

Advantages of Urethane Casting – Part 2: Cost

Urethane casting has several advantages over other plastic manufacturing processes like injection molding and additive manufacturing (3D printing). It is fast, inexpensive, and produces high-quality parts. Last week we discussed one advantage of urethane casting, speed. This week we’ll take a look at the second advantage: cost. The liquid poured and cured silicone molds used for casting urethane are much cheaper to produce compared to creating injection mold “hard” tooling. To put it in perspective, a casting project might be hundreds of [...]

Advantages of Urethane Casting – Part 3: Quality

Urethane casting has several advantages over other plastic manufacturing processes like injection molding and additive manufacturing (3D printing). It is fast, inexpensive, and produces high-quality parts. Over the last two weeks we’ve covered the advantages of speed and cost. This week we’ll take a look at the third advantage: quality. The cast urethane process can use a variety of formulations to produce parts that are soft or hard, colored or transparent. The silicone molds provide excellent surface finish detail and can [...]
