CAPABILITY — COMPRESSION MOULDING
Compression Moulding for Custom HTV Silicone Parts
SILCAP manufactures compression-moulded HTV silicone parts for technical components and consumer product projects. Each project is reviewed according to part geometry, material, hardness, colour, tolerance expectations, quantity, application, tooling scope and documentation requirements.
- Geometry-Specific Parts
- Project-Based Material Review
- External Tooling Coordination
- Sampling and Recurring Production
PROCESS OVERVIEW
Compression-Moulded Silicone Parts Reviewed Around the Project
Compression Moulding is used for customer-specific HTV silicone parts where geometry, material selection, Shore A hardness, colour, tooling scope and dimensional requirements must be reviewed together.
Project suitability is confirmed after drawing or sample review. Part design, mould structure, cavity requirements, material flow, flash-control expectations, sampling needs and expected order quantity are evaluated before production planning.
01
Drawing or Sample Review
Part geometry and functional requirements are reviewed before tooling and production scope are confirmed.
02
Material & Shore A Review
Material route, hardness, colour, curing and post-curing requirements are confirmed according to the application.

PROJECT FLOW
From Technical Review to Repeat Production
Each compression-moulded silicone project moves through a defined review process before tooling, sampling and production planning are confirmed.
-
01
Technical Input Review
Drawing, sample, geometry, function, quantity and application requirements are reviewed.
-
02
Material & Tooling Scope
Material route, Shore A hardness, colour, mould structure, cavity requirements 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, visual expectations and agreed inspection requirements.
-
05
Production Planning
Series production, inspection, packaging and repeat-order requirements are coordinated according to the approved scope.
QUALITY & DOCUMENTATION
Inspection and Documentation Aligned to the Project
Dimensions and Shore A hardness are checked against the approved drawing, first-article sample and agreed project requirements. Cure-related controls are managed through the approved production process.
Documentation scope is reviewed according to material, part design, colour, application, production process and target market requirements.
Dimensional & Visual Checks
Inspection is performed according to approved dimensions, visual requirements and the agreed project plan.
Shore A Hardness & Cure Control
Shore A hardness is checked according to project requirements. Where applicable, cure and post-cure controls follow the approved production process.
Material & Production Traceability
Material and production records are maintained according to the agreed order and inspection scope.
Documentation Review
Available FDA/LFGB raw material test reports, selected product-specific LFGB documentation, REACH, RoHS and GB 4806.16 reports can be reviewed according to project scope.
Available documents may refer to tested raw material, material samples or selected product-specific test scope. Additional final product-specific testing may be required depending on product design, colour, application, production process and customer regulatory requirements.
