Urethane Casting
Urethane casting is a manufacturing process used to create parts and prototypes from polyurethane resin. The process involves creating a silicone or rubber mold from a master pattern, which is often made using 3D printing or CNC machining. Once the mold is ready, liquid urethane resin is poured into it. The resin is then allowed to cure and harden, taking on the shape of the mold. Urethane casting is known for its ability to produce high-quality, durable parts with good detail and surface finish. It is often used for low to medium-volume production runs, prototyping, and making parts with complex geometries or fine details. This technique is popular in industries such as automotive, aerospace, and consumer goods due to its flexibility, cost-effectiveness, and the ability to replicate complex designs with precision.
