ABOUT Rubber Injection Molding
Technology: Rubber Injection Molding Services are manufacturing services used to mold rubber parts using high pressure injection molding machines. Rubber Injection molding uses ribbons of uncured rubber which are fed into a feed screw barrel which plasticizes the ribbon. It is then injected into a closed two-piece mold where it cures and is then ejected. In the liquid injection molding process, liquid silicone rubber is mixed with a curing agent which is injected cold into the mold where it is heated and cured under pressure.
Advantages: Rubber injection molding services provide low per piece costs in high volume runs of rubber parts.
Good for complex parts
The process lends itself to automation
No need for preforms
Elimination of flash
Limitations of Rubber Injection Molding Services
Significant upfront costs in mold making compared with other molding methods
Demolding injected silicone rubber can be difficult
Economical mainly for high volumes of precision parts
Applications: Rubber injection molding services provide a high volume alternative to other molding methods for
