Medical Grade Silicones
There are many choices of liquid silicone for the medical device
designer. Medical grade silicone goes through rigorous testing to
certify that it is a Class VI Silicone. |

Liquid Silicone Molding for Prototyping and Short-Runs
Our
focus is on medical liquid silicone molding for prototypes and
short-runs. We have the ability to process silicone in amounts as
small as 40 ml.

In-House Tooling for Liquid Silicone Molding
When designing a silicone mold we work with the medical designer to
determine parting lines, durometer, surface finish, etc. We make
suggestions on the part design to increase the manufacturability of
the part.
One of the major issues with tool design is determining the shrink
value. If shrinking is expected to be an issue, we will cut a
test cavity of similar shape and size to determine the shrinkage
value. |

Micro Features
Micro features for medical applications are dependent on how small and
accurate you can machine the mold. We use micro end mills as small
as .005" (14mm) in diameter to machine molds with fine details.
