Medical transfer molding provides tight control of part tolerances and can fill hundreds of mold cavities from a single pre-formed material. For both short runs and high volumes, this flexible manufacturing method supports complex shapes, thin-walled parts, and consistent dimensions.
Medical Compression Molding for Rubber Gaskets and Rubber Products
Medical compression molding can produce cost-effective rubber gaskets and rubber products for medical devices and equipment. It’s a good choice for very hard or difficult-to-flow materials because this molding method doesn’t need to push the rubber through sprues, gates, or runners.
Three Types of Medical Molding for Rubber Gaskets and Rubber Products
Medical molding for rubber gaskets and rubber products offers medical device designers a choice of molding methods: injection, transfer, or compression molding.
New Sponge Rubber for Passenger Rail Cars
Closed cell neoprene sponge rubber for passenger rail cars meets smoke and flame requirements. Use for seals, gaskets, thermal insulation and vibration isolation.
Custom Molded Rubber Parts for the Oil and Gas Industry
The Rubber Group makes custom molded rubber part for the oil and gas industry. Examples include valve seats, regulator seats, diaphragms, gaskets, and O-rings.
Medical Rubber Molding and Process Validation for Critical Parts
Medical rubber molding and process validation for critical parts includes protocol development, SPC and process capability, IQ/OQ/PP, and proof of regulatory compliance.
Isolation Mounts: Standard Products and Custom Designs
Isolation mounts are rubber-to-metal bonded assemblies that protect machinery, vehicles and equipment from shock and vibration. Source them from The Rubber Group.
Medical Silicone Rubber Molding and Silicone Rubber Mold Materials
Many medical molding applications use silicones, but not all of these elastomers are right for your application. Learn about silicone selection.
Rubber-to-Plastic Bonded Assemblies: Design and Manufacturing Considerations
Rubber-to-plastic bonded assemblies consist of an elastomer that is molded and chemically bonded to a prepared plastic surface using a specialized adhesive.
Rubber-to-Metal Bonded Assemblies: Design and Manufacturing Considerations
Rubber-to-metal bonded assemblies consist of an elastomer that is molded and chemically bonded to a clean metal surface using a specialized adhesive. During the injection, transfer, or compression molding process, rubber vulcanization and adhesive curing occur at the same time. Applications include small vibration mounts and massive railcar suspension components that weigh over 200 lbs. Chemical bonds can be strong, …
