Rubber Compression and Injection Molding

Rubber molding processes form uncured rubber and other elastomers into finished products. At Snowlucky Rubber, we offer the following rubber molding methods:

• Compression Molding
  This process relies on compressive force to enclose a rubber preform into the mold cavity. The rubber material heats up and cures within the mold, allowing it to retain its form even after it is removed from the mold. This method offers low tool costs, fast lead times, and many other benefits.
  

• Rubber Injection Molding 
  Rubber material is heated until it is plasticized before being injected at high pressures into a mold cavity. The rubber material is then subjected to high pressure and heat, which starts the vulcanization process. Rubber injection molding is the preferred option for complex designs due to its high level of precision and consistency.
