Why use Liquid Silicone Rubber for Injection Molding?

The Liquid Silicone Rubber Molding process is currently widely used in auto parts, new energy, aerospace and military, electronic engineering, medical equipment, food packaging, etc. Here at Lingshantech, we develop either standardized or completely customized Liquid Silicone Rubber products according to our customers requirements. The advantage of using our latest Liquid Silicone Rubber Molding service is why Lingshantech stands out in the LSR injection molding industry.

What is liquid silicone rubber and LSR Molding?

Liquid Silicone Rubber (LSR) is a type of synthetic rubber that exists in a liquid state and can be molded into various shapes and forms. With its high durability and
compatibility, LSR is an ideal material for many applications. It is a versatile material known for its unique properties and applications.
Liquid Silicone Rubber (LSR) Molding is a manufacturing process that involves injecting liquid silicone rubber into a mold to produce a wide range of consumer products.

Advantages of LSR Molding for Consumer Products

Durability: LSR molding products have excellent extreme temperatures, chemicals, UV and ozone resistance and superior electrical insulation. They are also waterproof and can withstand harsh environments. This makes LSR products ideal for use in medical devices, automotive parts, electronics and various other applications.

High Precision Products: Liquid silicone molding enables the creation of complicated parts with tight tolerances. The liquid silicone substance may flow into complicated mold cavities, allowing for precise reproduction of features and dimensions. This makes it possible to produce products that meet strict quality standards.

Automated Processing and Consistent Quality: LSR molding may be manufactured automatically without any touch with the outside environment. The liquid silicone rubber substance is readily handled and injected utilizing machines, reducing the possibility of human error. The even distribution of the liquid silicone rubber material within the mold results in consistent quality and minimum variation between individual pieces.

Cost-effective Production and Less Waste: LSR injection molding is considered an environmentally friendly solution since it produces minimal to no waste throughout manufacturing. Furthermore, unlike metals which cannot be recycled, silicone may be recycled to make other items in the future.
