PROCESS OVERVIEW
Continuous Silicone Profiles Reviewed Around the Project
Silicone Extrusion is used for continuous HTV silicone profiles and sections where cross-sectional geometry, material selection, Shore A hardness, colour, tooling and dimensional requirements must be reviewed together.
Project suitability is confirmed after drawing, profile section or sample review. Cross-sectional geometry, solid or hollow construction, critical dimensions, die structure, curing and post-curing requirements, sampling needs and expected order quantity are evaluated before production planning.

Drawing, profile section, sample, geometry, application and quantity requirements are reviewed.
-
02
Material & Tooling Scope
Material route, Shore A hardness, colour, die structure, curing and sampling scope are evaluated.
-
03
Quotation & Project Confirmation
Commercial and technical scope is prepared after the required project inputs are confirmed.
-
04
First-Article Sampling
Initial samples are reviewed against the approved drawing, profile section and agreed inspection requirements.
-
05
Production Planning
Series production, inspection, packaging and repeat-order requirements are coordinated according to the approved scope.
QUALITY & DOCUMENTATION
Profile Inspection and Documentation Aligned to the Project
Extruded profiles are checked according to the approved drawing, profile section, dimensional requirements, surface expectations and agreed inspection plan.
Documentation scope is reviewed according to material, profile design, colour, application, production process and target market requirements.
PROFILE AND MATERIAL CONTROLS
01
Cross-Sectional & Dimensional Checks
Inspection is performed according to approved profile dimensions, critical points and project requirements.
02
Shore A & Cure Review
