Supergum operates 40 advanced rubber injection molding machines, including LSR injection molding, which can be used to manufacture products of all sizes – from single mm items to large 1×1 meter products.
Injection molding fits almost all rubber types and rubber hardness levels. Naturally, the process begins with mold development. The mold must adhere to final product specifications and specific manufacturing machine capabilities. It is a task that requires vast engineering knowledge and proficiency.
Injection molding advantages include high production speed, high reproducibility and high-quality finished products. This method is recommended for products that require vast serial manufacturing.
When manufactured in large quantities, the cost per product will be lower than if manufactured via compression, and can balance higher mold development costs.
