Silicone Injection Molding Description
Silicone Injection Molding is an economical and widely used industrial process for manufacturing a wide range of goods made of silicone. These include seals for aerospace applications, sealing membranes for industrial use, electrical connection insulators, and even baking pans and spatulas. Silicone rubber products are mass produced using machines of various sizes.
There are Liquid silicone injection molding and solid compress silicone molding processes. Silicone injection molding is becoming increasingly popular, not only for liquid silicone's biocompatibility, heat resistance, flexibility, self-lubrication, oil resistance and high quality, but also because liquid silicone molding enables high volume production with fast cycle times.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. What is the best choice for Liquid silicone molding or Compress molding?
As the Liquid silicone molding process requires more expensive tooling, if the production quantity is not large, we recommend choosing the compress molding process.
Q2. How can I place an order?
Please contact any of our sales personnel to place an order, and provide the details of your requirements as clearly as possible.
Q3. How can I get a sample to check your quality?
After price confirmation, you can request samples to check our quality and will need to cover the express freight costs.
Q4. Can you do the design for us?
Yes. We have a professional team with rich experience in plastic products design and manufacturing. Just let us know your ideas and we will help carry out your ideas into perfect products.
Q5. How long can I expect to get the sample and mass production?
For existing molds, samples will be ready in 3-7 days, with mass production taking 1-2 weeks. For building a new mold, it takes 25-35 days with mass production requiring 1-4 weeks.
Q6. What is your terms of delivery?
We accept EXW, FOB, CFR, CIF, DDU, DDP, etc. You can choose the most convenient or cost-effective option for you.
