Silicone Prototyping and Small-Series Production for Precision Manufacturing
Custom silicone seals, membranes, connectors, and precision-fit components require exact material properties and dimensional consistency — from the first prototype through to small-series production. Silicone rapid prototyping closes the gap between design validation and production readiness, without the cost and lead time of LSR tooling.
Why silicone for precision components?
Silicone delivers the chemical resistance, temperature stability, and mechanical properties required in demanding engineering environments. Precise Shore hardness control, biocompatible formulations, and tight dimensional tolerances make it the material of choice for functional prototypes and bridge production — where TPU or TPE substitutes create validation risk.
Why silicone additive manufacturing?
- Functional prototypes in true silicone
- not TPU or TPE
- Design iterations without retooling, change geometry between batches
- Injection-molding-like surface finish via DLP technology
- Full material documentation and Certificates of Conformance available
