How Vacuum Casting Works

A 3D-printed master model is placed into a container and covered with liquid silicone rubber. Then, it’s put into a vacuum chamber, creating a detailed mold.
​
Liquid material is poured into the mold cavity. The mold is then placed under vacuum to remove any air bubbles, and the material is left to harden.

Finally, the mold is opened, and the replica of the mold is removed. This process can be repeated about 30 times per mold, quickly and easily creating parts.

Vacuum Casting Use Cases

Vacuum casting is typically used for small-batch production, as it’s cost-effective and fast. Vacuum casting is often used as an alternative to injection molding when production numbers are low.

Furthermore, the smooth finish and wide range of colors make vacuum casting especially convenient for high-quality end-use parts.

Rapid Casting for Legacy Parts at MakerVerse

Rapid Casting for Legacy and Discontinued Spare Parts: A Complete Sourcing Guide

The OEM has discontinued the part. Original tooling was scrapped years ago. Every hour of downtime drains the budget, and your production line depends on a component that simply no longer exists. What do you do when the part keeping your operation running cannot be bought? Rapid casting offers a proven path: 3D-printed moulds combined with conventional metal casting reproduce legacy parts without original tooling or blueprints. The Topic in a Nutshell Rapid casting defined: Combines additive manufacturing (binder jetting for 3D-printed sand moulds; SLA, FDM, or PMMA for investment casting patterns) with conventional metal casting. The final part is cast metal with full metallurgical properties, not a 3D-printed component. No drawings required: A physical part, even if worn or corroded, can be 3D-scanned and reverse-engineered into a CAD model, from which a mould is produced and metal is poured. MOQ of one part is possible: Rapid casting is most
