What Is the Vacuum Casting?


Vacuum Casting is a copying technique used for the production of small series of functional plastic parts. Using two-component polyurethanes and silicone molds, Vacuum Casting is known for its fast production of high-quality prototypes or end-use products.

Why choose Vacuum Casting?

Silicone molding results in high-quality parts comparable to injection-molded components. This makes vacuum casted models especially suitable for fit and function testing, marketing purposes or a series of final parts in limited quantities. Vacuum Casting also lends itself well to a variety of finishing degrees, and we can match the finish you need for your parts.



Vacuum casting technology is a common technique in rapid prototyping. It allows manufacturers a way to produce low-volume products rapidly on account of its low cost and stable product quality. Vacuum casting technology works by making a silicone(SIL) mold for a prototype of products, and then pouring materials such as acrylonitrile butadiene styrene(ABS) and Polycarbonate (PC) to duplicate products the same as prototypes. If you are in need of low-volume production, we will apply CNC processing equipment to make a model of a product and then complete the duplication by using vacuum vasting technology.

Advantages of ZH vacuum casting

  • 1. High level reproduction of products duplicated from mold, with even elaborate details on the surface and minimal manual labor.

  • 2. Short production period. The production can be fulfilled in a few days after the fabrication of the prototypes.

  • 3. Low cost. The initial cost of making molds is also very low.

  • 4. Suitable for various molded polymer materials and can create products of various colors.

  • 5. Capable of completing duplication easily and quickly even facing machine parts with complex structure or shape.
