Liquid Silicone Rubber Injection Molding

Liquid silicone rubber injection molding is a thermoset process that cools the material delivery system while heating the mold tool to cure silicone material into parts.

Liquid silicone rubber injection molding. Injection molding of liquid silicone rubber lsr is a process to produce pliable durable parts in high volume. Injection molding of liquid silicone rubber lsr is the fastest growing segment of stockwell elastomerics molding operations. How does liquid silicone rubber molding work. Therefore it has been widely used in the production design of medical products baby products automobile manufacturing food industry electronic products diving products kitchen utensils.

Liquid silicone rubber lsr is a family of materials commonly specified for gaskets seals and cushioning pads in portable communications data acquisition devices sensing instruments and rugged enclosures with demanding sealing requirements in outdoor conditions. The liquid injection molding lim manufacturing process molds silicone rubber into a broad array of parts and products. Due to the thermosetting nature of the. The liquid silicone injection molding process is highly automated with short cycle times to reduce the silicone part price.

Liquid silicone rubber injection molding lsr is a non toxic heat resistant thermal stability highly resilient and flexible thermosetting material. Like a standard aluminum tool an lsr molding tool is fabricated using cnc machining to create a high temperature tool built to withstand the lsr molding process.
