The rubber industry has developed alongside the automobile industry. In the 1960s, the rapid development of the automobile and petrochemical industries significantly improved the production level of the rubber industry. Entering the 1970s, to adapt to the needs of high-speed, safety, energy conservation, pollution elimination, and environmental prevention in automobiles, new varieties of rubber parts, such as tires, continuously emerged. Among these, prototype rubber parts undoubtedly occupy a critical position. They are not only widely used in various automobile systems but also play a vital role in enhancing vehicle performance and comfort.
High-Efficiency Sealing
In the field of automobile manufacturing, prototype rubber parts are often used as sealing components, such as valve gaskets and water pump seals. These parts effectively prevent the leakage of liquids and gases due to their excellent sealing performance, ensuring the smooth operation of core components like the engine. They also prevent the invasion of dust and impurities, thereby extending the lifespan of the vehicle.
Pioneers in Vibration Reduction
Prototype rubber parts also excel in vibration reduction. Whether in shock absorbers, rubber springs in the suspension system, or vibration dampening devices in engine mounts, they all play crucial roles. These parts effectively absorb and dissipate vibrations and noise generated while driving, creating a quieter and more comfortable driving environment for the driver and passengers, while also protecting the precise internal components of the vehicle.
Durable and Long-Lasting
These rubber parts, after special treatment, exhibit excellent wear-resistant and anti-aging properties. They can maintain their original performance and shape for a long time, ensuring the long-term stable operation of vehicles.
The King of Vibration Reduction
With their excellent vibration reduction performance, prototype rubber parts effectively reduce bumps and vibrations during the driving process, enhancing driving stability and ride comfort.
Liquid Silicone Rubber (LSR) molding is a type of injection molding. The production process of rapid prototype rubber parts involves first injecting liquid silicone rubber into a mold, then thermosetting and cooling the liquid, and finally removing it from the mold. In making rubber part prototypes, compression molding uses uncured rubber pre-formed into controlled shapes (such as disks). The mold surrounds the part, and it is compressed between two plates under high pressure. High temperature and pressure vulcanize the rubber, curing the part. Pins automatically eject the part from the mold, speeding up production.
