Small Batch, No Quality Compromise
Vacuum casting and rapid tooling designed for 50-500 piece runs, bridging the gap between prototyping and mass production. Whether new product trials, crowdfunding first batches, or limited editions, lantu3D delivers fast.
Vacuum Casting
- Materials: ABS-like, PP-like, PC-like, rubber-like, covering mainstream engineering plastics
- Each silicone mold produces 20-30 parts, surface quality close to injection molding
- Color options: natural/black/custom RAL colors
- Can embed nuts, inserts, and metal components
Rapid Tooling (Aluminum/Soft Steel Molds)
- Aluminum mold: 7-15 days (traditional steel: 30-60 days)
- Mold cost only 1/3-1/5 of steel molds
- Produces 500-5000 parts, ideal for new product validation and transition
- Supports two-shot molding and insert molding
Typical Applications
- New product trials: 50-200pcs for market validation
- Crowdfunding: small batch delivery to backers
- Custom products: different specs per customer, not mass-producible
- Trade show samples: high-quality samples before the event
- Bridge production: supply during steel mold development
Delivery Process
3D file → Process evaluation + quote → Order confirmation → Master pattern/mold making → Casting/injection → Post-processing (deburring, painting, silk screening) → QC → Shipping
Submit a model, drawing, image or written notes. Engineers will review material, process, finishing and delivery based on actual use.
