Digital production of silicone parts using 3D-printed molds
More and more companies are switching to digital production techniques to produce custom work faster, more accurately, and more cost-effectively. Asiga SilCAST has been specifically developed for manufacturing high-quality 3D-printed molds used for casting silicone parts. This innovative workflow combines the design freedom of additive manufacturing with the proven material properties of medical and industrial silicones.

Instead of directly printing a silicone part, SilCAST produces an accurate, biodegradable mold. After filling with liquid silicone and complete curing, the printed mold can be easily removed by hand. The result is a perfectly formed silicone part with excellent dimensional accuracy, fine detail rendering, and high-quality surface finish.

This digital production method is particularly suitable for prototypes, custom products, and small production runs where flexibility and reproducibility are essential.

Why choose a 3D-printed silicone mold?

Direct 3D printing of silicone still has limitations regarding material selection and processing. By using a precisely printed mold, existing high-quality silicones can be applied without compromising the mechanical properties of the end product.

This allows you to benefit from:

• Digital design freedom
  High dimensional accuracy
  Excellent detail reproduction
  Fewer manual operations
  Faster prototype development
  Economical production of unique products and small series
  Reproducible product quality

How does Asiga SilCAST work?

The workflow is simple and efficient.

1. Design the desired part digitally in your CAD software.
2. Print the biodegradable mold with Asiga SilCAST.
3. Fill the mold with a suitable medical or industrial silicone.
4. Allow the silicone to fully cure.
5. Easily remove the printed mold by hand.
6. The silicone part is ready for further processing or application.

This method combines the speed of digital production with the proven performance of high-quality silicone materials.
