Vacuum cast parts offer injection-molded quality without the tooling cost.
Low-Volume Vacuum Casting Services for Ironbark
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 Ironbark 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
