A Comprehensive Guide to Silicone Compression Molding

Advantage of LSP molded parts

Limitless design – Enables production of part geometries and technical solutions not possible otherwise

Consistent – Provides the highest consistency in product dimension, precision and overall quality

Pure – Silicone is one of the most extensively tested biomaterials with a long history of safe use

Precise – Flashless, wasteless tool design concepts for parts weighing from 0.002 grams to several hundred grams

Reliable – Using the latest technology in machinery, tooling and automation

Quality – Zero-defect quality level through in-process controls

Fast – Enables highest volume production due to short cycle times, from several thousand to millions

Clean – Utilizing state-of-the-art processing techniques and production in Class 7 and 8 cleanrooms

Cost-effective – Offers lowest Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)

LSR Injection Molding

Innovative technology meeting customer needs

 

Liquid Silicone Rubber (LSR) can be processed in a liquid injection molding (LIM) process. The liquid raw material is mixed from two separate components in a ratio of 1:1 and injected via a cold-runner-system into a hot mold. Curing takes place within seconds, offering the advantage of fast cycling and production of large quantities.

 

Due to the flexibility in design and tooling, LSR injection molding is ideal for producing complex geometries and can consolidate various functional features into a single part. It also offers significant advantages in terms of product reliability and total cost of ownership.

What Is Liquid Silicone Rubber (LSR)？

The odorless and tasteless properties of liquid silicone rubber (LSR) combine seamlessly with its inherent
mold and bacteria resistance, creating a safety shield against unwanted contaminants. With LSR’s
hydrophobic nature resisting moisture and its easy cleaning, it provides a barrier of protection that
safeguards the integrity of your food-related products.

LYASILICONE utilizes an extensive array of high-quality, food-grade elastomers. To ensure we have
an uninterrupted supply of high quality certified materials, we source materials from our longstanding
network of suppliers that are the top material manufacturers worldwide. With a thorough evaluation
of your project’s timelines and cost objectives, and an understanding of your product specifications
and performance requirements, our seasoned experts will provide a solution tailored to meet your specific needs.
