What is Vacuum Casting?

Vacuum casting is a manufacturing process used to produce functional prototypes or low-volume production parts. It involves pouring polyurethane or similar materials into silicone molds under vacuum conditions to eliminate air bubbles and ensure flawless detail replication.

How Vacuum Casting Works

  1. Create a master model using CNC or 3D printing.
  2. Encapsulate the model in liquid silicone to form the mold.
  3. Cure the mold, then cut and remove the master.
  4. Cast resin material under vacuum to fill the mold cavity.
  5. Allow parts to cure and post-process as needed.

Materials We Offer

Our material library includes various PU resins that mimic the performance of engineering-grade plastics:

  • ABS-like Resin (Rigid and tough)
  • PP-like Resin (Flexible and impact-resistant)
  • PC-like Transparent Resin (Clear optics)
  • Rubber-like Resin (Shore A 30–90)
  • Fire-retardant and high-temperature resistant grades

Our Process Workflow

Langhe Casting follows a structured and transparent process:

  1. Customer submits 3D CAD files (STP/IGES)
  2. We create or validate the master model
  3. Silicone mold is cast around the master
  4. Vacuum casting and curing take place
  5. Final parts undergo trimming and surface finishing

Quality Control

We deliver consistent and reliable parts with rigorous inspection methods:

  • Dimensional accuracy checks
  • Surface inspection under magnification
  • Color and finish matching as per sample
  • Functional testing if required
