Certified Design, Tooling & Production — All Under One Roof

At HB Silicone, all stages in the silicone product development process occur under one roof, including product design, precision tooling, manufacturing, and fulfillment.

What is silicone compression molding production?

Silicone molding (moulding) is a manufacturing technique used to transform uncured (unvulcanized) silicone rubber into a pre-defined shape.
Compression molding is one method of silicone molding production, in which the uncured silicone rubber material will be placed between two halves of a pre-heated tool mold.

The mold is then closed under a top force from the vulcanizer molding machine. The high pressure will force the silicone material into contact with all areas of the mold cavity.
The heat and pressure will last for a few minutes until the raw material is fully cured, so this process is also known as silicone vulcanization.  The shaped silicone components together with excess material which we called flash will be removed or demolded by hands then.

What is silicone over-molding?

Silicone overmolding is a process in which the finished component in metal or thermoplastic or even a different silicone part is overmolded with silicone in silicone molding production.
Simply put, silicone overmolding lets you combine multiple materials and colors with silicone for better performance and a more pretty appearance.

Silicone overmolding requires more than just the right equipment, it also calls for extensive knowledge of raw material property and their compatibility, particularly when it comes to factors like shrinkage and temperature requirements and stable combination.
