Great performance silicon rubber overmolding

Compression Molding process is based on the characteristics of each stage of the curing reaction of thermosetting plastics or other moulding materials.
Compression mold uses a hydraulic press in which a mold is fixed on the top and bottom platens of the press. The molds can be classified as hand molds, used for trial runs; semiautomatic, in which the press follows a programmed cycle but the operator manually loads and unloads the press, and automatic, which operate under a fully automatic press cycle (including automatic loading and unloading).

Advantages
Inexpensive Tooling – The low cost of tooling is one of the advantages of compressed molding that everyone appreciates. Without a transfer cycle or injection process, there is not much infrastructure involved. Therefore, tooling costs are significantly less compared to other rubber manufacturing methods.
Ideal for Small Runs – Another benefit is that this method is ideal for small production runs. A lower capital cost for manufacturing a mold tool is the reason behind this.
Perfect for Larger Parts – Compression molding of rubber is also great for manufacturing larger parts and components. Due to the fact that the material loads directly into the mold cavity, there are no restrictions as to the weight of the finished product. The difference between compression molding vs Injection Molding is that with the latter, the barrel can only be filled to a certain volume, which limits the weight of the part of component manufactured.
No Runners, Gates, or Sprues – Another advantage of compressed molding is that no tooling features are required through which the material has to pass, including runners, gates, or sprues. As a result, less material is wasted, there are fewer cosmetic distractions, and the cost is reduced.
