SiOCAST offers a flexible and customizable mold system, making it an ideal solution for action figure and toy makers. Our technology allows for medium production of limited editions, providing manufacturers with a cost-effective option for their unique products.

Traditional tooling is often prohibitively expensive for small projects. Our custom rapid tooling service is a cost-effective, low-volume alternative in situations where large volumes of the part won’t be needed in the future. The rapid production tooling process is commonly used in industrial settings for prototyping solutions or for diagnosing design issues, providing an easy introduction to mold making.

SiOCAST offers a unique in-house solution for injection molding technology in silicone rubber molds, bridging the gap between 3D printing and traditional industrial injection.

SiOCAST offers an ideal solution for products that require manufacturing production, but don't require large quantities and need a cost-effective approach.

Every quarter, we order approximately 20 sets of plastic enclosures for our device from 3ERP. The enclosures were initially made by urethane casting, but Ronan came back to me with the idea of using an aluminum mold, which allowed me to get a few hundred moldings. We decided to move to this process. The T1 samples weren’t good enough, as we got some shrink marks, but this was quickly sorted out when we received the T2 samples.

For this tail light project, we needed to fabricate a housing, reflector, light guide, bezel, an outer lens, and other components in a short period of time. The overall assembly size was about 600 x 400 x 150 mm, which is relatively large and the customer wanted to test real materials. In this case, 3D printing, CNC machining, and vacuum casting were not suitable, so prototype molding was the only option. Click to view this case

At 3ERP, we typically create rapid molds by CNC machining and EDM, though we also sometimes use additive methods such as 3D printing technologies.

Stay up-to-date with SiOCAST and its latest developments through our blog section, featuring news, events, and exciting updates about our products and services.

We cater to a diverse range of industries, including toy makers, miniature manufacturers, tabletop game manufacturers, model landscapes, over-molding, tech parts, engineering, fashion accessories, jewelry, miniature sculptures, role-playing game manufacturers, anime and manga figure manufacturers, and action figure manufacturers.

The rapid tooling process involves the creation of a mold using aluminum or soft steel, a stocked mold base, and hand-load inserts. Rapid tooling is one of the best methods for fulfilling small batch orders meant for use in marketing samples, product evaluations, and process design.

An ideal choice for prototyping, aluminum mold tooling provides a cost-effective way to produce molded parts. Since they are easy to cut, aluminum molds can reduce tooling costs by 15–25% compared to other mold materials and reduce cycle times by up to 40%. This translates to a faster turnaround for our customers.

At SiOCAST, we offer a full injection ecosystem with a focus on three product pillars: mold making in silicone rubber plus accessories, machinery for injection and press for mold making, and thermoplastic resins. Our products are designed to help you maximize your mold-making skills, optimize your manufacturing and production, and ultimately, increase your revenue.

When partnering with SiOCAST, our customers can trust that they are working with a company that values sustainability and continuously improves our environmental impact.

Our manufacturing machinery line provides innovative solutions for injection molding and press for mold making, designed to enhance your production efficiency.

Can you imagine attempting to make prototype tools for over 30 components in just two months? Our customer desperately needed 200-300 sets of tail lights for testing, but mass production tools wouldn’t have been ready for eight months. They needed a solution to get good quality moldings by their deadline and at a much lower cost than production tools.

Two months ago, I was super stressed by an urgent plastic molding project. Our customer desperately wanted 100 sets at very short notice in order to run testing with real materials, even though normal production would have taken more than six months. None of our preferred moldmaking suppliers could help us, given the deadline. Luckily, one of my friends recommended 3ERP to us by chance.

SiOCAST is committed to sustainability and is proud to receive recognition for our efforts. We prioritize minimizing our environmental impact and providing eco-friendly solutions to our customers.

3ERP has a fantastic mold design team. They managed to finish the mold design within 10 days and started to fabricate the molds right after that. I was surprised that more than 60 items, including some big parts, were completed to a decent standard within two months. Our customers eventually received the moldings to run their testing. 3ERP saved our business!

Though it features multiple benefits, steel is a more expensive tooling material than aluminum and requires more turnaround time to produce molds and prototypes.

Aluminum evenly dissipates heat, which provides dimensional stability in tooling. This significantly reduces deformation and produces less waste during the production process. It is important to note that aluminum is not as strong as steel, so it has a shorter life cycle and is less useful in high-volume processes.

With SiOCAST, you can build an in-house thermoplastic factory, eliminating the need for outsourcing and reducing transportation costs and emissions. Our injection molding technology into silicone rubber molds provides a cost-effective and eco-friendly alternative to traditional manufacturing. With the ability to produce parts on-demand and in-house, you can have better control over your production and streamline your supply chain.

Although we had to invest more for the mold, we now save 70% compared with urethane casting, and we can use UV-resistant ABS to keep the color stable. Overall, I am very happy with the solution.

Steel is a sturdy, solid, high-quality tooling material, though it is not suitable for all applications. Steel molds have a longer life cycle than aluminum and are therefore ideal for high-volume production. Steel can also be used to produce molds from engineering-grade plastics that are resistant to abrasion and corrosion.

SiOCAST has established itself as the industry standard for miniature manufacturing, providing a cost-effective solution for in-house manufacturing and on-demand production with minimal tooling costs.
