Vacuum Casting

Cost-Effective, Production-Like Parts for Prototypes and Low-Volume Manufacturing

When your brief is for pre-launch testing, low-volume manufacture of simple parts, or concept models and prototypes, you want a reliable, cost-effective alternative to injection moulding. Vacuum casting fits that bill—delivering high-quality, functional components with production-grade performance, fast.

At Paragon Rapid Technologies, we specialise in vacuum casting that bridges the gap between prototyping and production. The process begins with a 3D printed master pattern and uses silicone moulds to create precise replicas. Both steps are quick and economical, making vacuum casting ideal for tight timelines and limited budgets. The finished parts offer exceptional surface quality, tight tolerances, and mechanical properties that closely mirror injection moulded parts.

We’re here to help you keep your prototyping and development costs down without compromising on quality. Our dedicated vacuum casting facility is equipped with multiple machines and an extensive range of rigid and flexible polyurethane materials, including options with high temperature resistance, V0-rated flame retardancy, UV stability, glass filling, and chemical resistance. Whatever your application, we’re committed to delivering quick turnaround times, exceptional part quality, and outstanding customer service.

  • Injection Moulding Quality Without The Cost Vacuum casting delivers production-like finishes, accuracy, and strength—perfect for functional testing, marketing samples, and short production runs.
  • Fast, Economical Tooling 3D printed master patterns and silicone moulds keep tooling costs low and lead times short—ideal for agile development and quick iterations.
  • Versatile Finishes & Materials A wide selection of polyurethane resins is available, with flexible, rigid, and high-performance properties. Parts can be coloured, textured, and finished to your exact specifications.
  • Dedicated In-House Facility With multiple casting machines and expert technicians on site, we provide responsive lead times and dependable repeatability for batches of 1 to 50+ parts.
