Engineering and manufacturing

Custom Silicone Engineering & Manufacturing Services

WYD supports custom silicone projects from design review through prototype, tooling and repeat production.

We provide both finished-silicone manufacturing and custom silicone mold development, including HCR/HTV compression molding, LSR injection molding, RTV silicone mold making, overmolding and extrusion.

Start Your Custom Project

Product Development

For projects that begin with:

  • sketch
  • image
  • physical sample
  • rough CAD
  • early concept

Silicone Product Development →

We help define the manufacturing route and information required before tooling.

DFM & CAD Engineering

We review manufacturability before tooling and can quote CAD/model changes where needed.

DFM review and CAD creation are different services.

Silicone DFM & CAD →

Prototyping

Prototype to validate:

  • fit
  • hardness
  • demolding
  • surface
  • function
  • cavity weight
  • assembly

Services and process overview still
Services are RFQ → DFM → sample → production, not a menu of adjectives.

HCR / HTV Compression Molding

Custom molded silicone parts and production trays using heated metal tooling.

Silicone Compression Molding →

LSR Injection Molding

Liquid silicone injection molding for projects where the material, geometry and volume support the process.

LSR Injection Molding →

Mold service process
Mold services and OEM article services are different deliverables.

RTV Silicone Mold Making

Flexible casting molds for complex 3D, resin, plaster, candle, soap and other mold applications.

Typical route: 3D/CAD → Resin Master Model → RTV Silicone Mold.

WYD does provide RTV silicone mold making.
