Technical Approach: the science behind Dymotek’s effective silicone molding
The Technical Approach that Dymotek takes to silicone rubber injection molding is founded on scientific molding disciplines. We understand the unique and important characteristics that make liquid silicone rubber such a tricky but very desirable material, and carefully consider the silicone rubber’s “point of view” in order to create identical parts with efficiency and consistency.
Through this approach, we consider all molding variables while evaluating four critical application components:
- Design: structural integrity of proposed piece/part
- Material: silicone grade, characteristics range, and intended final application
- Tooling: design, construction, and anticipated life cycle
- Process: molding and assembly with attention to temperature, flow rate, flash pressure tolerance, and cooling/handling time
Working with you as an extension of your company, we conduct this process with focus on important project objectives including budget, deadlines, part volume, and final assembly needs. This approach provides the important ability to detect problematic areas early in order to keep your program on track with minimal prototype or production revisions. The result is a silicone molding solution built around a strategy that will allow you to become and remain competitive in whatever marketplace your final product targets.
