Vacuum Casting

Vacuum cast parts offer injection-molded quality without the tooling cost.

Low-Volume Vacuum Casting Services for ACT

COLETEK provides urethane vacuum casting for low-volume, high-quality parts. This process is ideal when you need small production runs that look and feel like injection molded parts — but without the time and expense of tooling.

Why Choose Vacuum Casting?

  • Ideal for 10–100 part batches
  • Produces functional prototypes indistinguishable from production parts
  • Compatible with various materials, including simulated ABS and flexible rubber
  • Overmoulding, thread inserts, and complex geometries are supported
  • Surface finishes can be pre-textured, polished, or painted

Perfect for Design Validation

Avoid costly tooling errors. By creating vacuum cast parts from a 3D-printed master (based on your CAD data), you can validate your design before committing to expensive injection mould tooling.

No CAD design? No worries. We also offer ACT 3D modeling services.

Many of our clients use vacuum casting for:

  • Marketing samples and investor demos
  • Mechanical testing and fit validation
  • Short-run production before tooling is finalised

Material and Colour Options

We offer a wide range of casting materials with varying mechanical properties. Need specific colours? We can colour-match using the Pantone colour code — no need for post-painting unless desired.

Finishing Services

  • High-polish finishes
  • Custom painting and coating
  • Precision trimming and QA

Vacuum Casting Services for ACT – Selected Client Testimonials

This is a sample of public feedback from a broader range of client work.

Delivered excellence on time, great work and great team, thanks!

We had the opportunity to work with Coletek on the re-work of some complex SMD PCB assemblies during 2019. The work was carried out to a very high standard and we were extremely pleased with the outcome. We would not hesitate to recommend COLETEK for any type of complex technology work requiring high accuracy and professionalism.

COLETEK have been absolutely fantastic in their support and manufacture of various components for us. Our designs are always bespoke, intricate and low volume and it’s great to have an Australian company like COLETEK as a trusted and quality manufacturer for our spacecraft mechanical components and assemblies – which have been flight proven through successful mission operations. Keep up the great work!

Skykraft is a Canberra based company designing and developing spacecraft for the delivery of global space-based services. Luke and the team have been very responsive with quotes and delivery of machined parts for our company. Looking forward to working with COLETEK on our space programmes.

We've worked with Luke and the team on and off for the past two years. We've found them very accessible and extremely thorough in their dealings. Their documentation is second to none and we’d have no hesitation recommending them on this basis alone.
