Vacuum casting process uses a 3D printed SLA master pattern and Silicone molds to produce high-quality, short-run parts without expensive and time-consuming hard tooling. Karkhana.Io offers a wide range of vacuum casting services using a variety of materials. We just require the .STEP file of your parts in order to provide DFM and speedy quote.
Masters are 3D printed models of your CAD design. Usually SLA technology is used to produce parts of ABS material. Once verified and approved, the next step is making the mold.
Once the master is placed, liquid silicone is poured and cured at a suitable temperature. Once dried, the mold is cut open, the master is removed and ready for vacuum casting.
Casting resin is poured in the empty cavity, in order to produce parts with high accuracy and finish.
ABS-Like is a general purpose polyurethane plastic that simulates ABS thermoplastic. This material is a great choice for most product enclosures.

Vacuum casting provides end-use, rigid, flexible, and rubber parts with production-level quality. The vacuum casting process uses a 3D-printed master pattern to create a silicone mold that delivers high-quality, short-run parts as an economical alternative to low-volume injection molding. With urethane casting, you can get production quality parts at low volumes and without the high costs and lead times of steel or aluminum tooling. This is helpful for bringing new products to market where you may want production-grade products to test with new customers and markets and validate your design hypotheses before making a substantial investment to scale manufacturing.
Cast urethane is often used as a bridge between SLA prototyping and mass production. Cost-effective and versatile, the process can be used to manufacture parts in a variety of sizes, durometers, materials, and colors, while still providing production-level material performance.
The ability to rapidly generate multiple prototypes means that changes can be incorporated and retested quickly, making urethane casting an ideal method for consumer testing or end-user evaluation of parts.
Vacuum casting is a consistent, flexible, and precise manufacturing process factors that are ideal for low-volume runs of production-grade parts. With the development of cast urethane soft tooling , low-volume production has become increasingly cost-effective and efficient for a wide range of consumer products and medical devices.
Also called rapid tooling, bridge tooling is the process between product development and production. Since the process of retooling molds is expensive and sometimes impossible, it's important to make sure a tool works correctly before moving into volume production. The flexibility of cast urethane allows the simple evolution of prototypes in response to user testing, while also ensuring that each part remains accurate in accordance with the master pattern even down to detailed internal features.
Karkhana.io can make parts to your design with the materials you specify. Karkhana.io has no minimum order quantity, which makes the service valuable for prototyping as well as production services.
We provide advanced inspection reports using CMM or laser scanner technologies as well as material certifications and certificates of conformity. You can easily add these services to your order.
We have a range of finishing services, depending upon the material and process, to choose from. Many finishes like painting, silkscreen, or other coatings are compatible with metals, plastics, and composites.
