QuantumCast Cast Urethanes
Advanced Cast Urethanes
QuantumCast™ is the Solid Concepts' flagship Cast Urethane product on which we've built our expanded product offering. QuantumCast is a proprietary, multi-step technology that applies vacuum, heat and pressure to process-advanced formula polymers (AFP's) yielding void-free, strong and stable pre-production and short-run production components. This low-pressure injection molding into reinforced soft tools combines the benefits of platinum silicone molds (speed and versatility) with quantum improvements in mechanical properties utilizing our AFP materials. Specifically, our AFP3100 has over three times the impact strength of old-style cast urethanes while offering excellent rigidity (high flex modulus).
QuantumCast Advantages & Disadvantages
- Very fast processing of complex parts and panels without hard tooling
- Excellent A and B-Side detail
- Composite-like performance (i.e., high flex modulus, high impact strength)
- Short mold life: ~25 shots
- Production rate: 2 or 3/day
- Not as accurate as Hand Lay-up FRP or Resin Transfer Molding
