No mold required. We manufacture thermoplastic resin products with short lead times, accommodating everything from experimentation and evaluation of prototypes to small-scale production.
Traditionally, molding thermoplastic resins required the production of molds, and 3D printers faced challenges such as layering weaknesses and limited materials. However, light molding using silicone rubber molds allows for the molding of thermoplastic resins without the need for expensive molds, achieving significant cost reduction and time savings. It enables quick and low-cost responses from prototypes to final products.

basic information
Light molding is the world's first new technology that uses silicone rubber molds to shape actual models of thermoplastic resins. The molding material for mass production (thermoplastic resin) is made into fine particles, which are filled into the silicone mold and compressed under vacuum while being irradiated with near-infrared light from the outside. This light passes through the silicone rubber mold, heating and melting the fine particle material placed inside the mold to shape it. This method allows for the rapid and cost-effective production of actual models with the same performance as products made through injection molding.
