Rubber Transfer Molding.
Rubber Transfer Molding combines the advantages of injection molding with the ease of compression molding. Rubber transfer molding is the ideal process for forming parts that require:
- Exact positioning
- Bonding rubber to fragile metal parts - such as wire
- Mold designs that contain multiple cavities and can trap air
- Intricate parts with lower volume requirements
Dental Equipment Component
Silicone rubber created with transfer molding, molded in a variety of colors;
mint, lavender, sky blue, peach and light gray
The process of transfer molding involves pushing unvulcanized rubber through sprues into a heated mold. The rubber is placed in a chamber at the top of the mold then placed in a press. During the transfer process, rubber is forced through the mold to prevent trapped air while forming the final product.
Transfer molding offers several advantages over other methods by providing:
- Shorter production cycles
- Maintains closer dimensional tolerances than compression molding
- Provides uniformity
- Fast mold setup
