LSR flows easily into molds with varied wall thicknesses and can fill very long, thin sections of a mold.  Keep in mind that a limited number of toolmakers specialize in LSR molds—and many are based in Europe.  With that widespread availability also comes a wider selection of mold metals and production techniques.

Unfilled TPEs in both clear and translucent formulations, suitable for both injection molding and extrusion GLS™ TPEs - Injection Molding Guide Guide to overmolding material selection, part and mold design, material handling and preparation, TPE injection molding, processing, maximizing adhesion and troubleshooting for GLS™ TPEs

Insert Molding The most widely used process is insert molding, where a pre-molded insert is placed into a mold and the TPE is shot directly over it (Figure 1).

It supplies molded parts and subassemblies to Audi AG, one of the world’s largest auto manufacturers. A high melt flow rate for the solution reduces packing and cooling time requirements to improve overall molding cycle times. Faster processing = lower energy costs: Higher melt flow rates enable shorter injection molding cycles, resulting in reduced energy requirements.
