The name "LIMS" describes a molding system in which liquid silicone rubber is used in high-precision injection molding machines. All steps are automated, from mixing to molding. This system saves labor and time, and makes it easy to produce high-quality molded items.
Addition-cure liquid silicone is used, so cure speed is fast and molding time can be reduced.
The materials are liquids, so molding can be done at low injection pressures. The system is also suitable for molding of high-precision components.
Suitable for flashless, runnerless molding. And because molded items release easily from the mold after curing, the molding process can be automated.
There are no byproducts generated during curing. With flashless and runnerless molding, there is no need to process waste material, meaning a more environmentally friendly manufacturing process.
