Silicone Molding Services

Advanced silicone molding services are offered by AMETEK EMC, Eden Prairie, MN. Services include both liquid silicone rubber (LSR) molding and silicone transfer molding (STM). These cutting-edge molding processes are utilized to manufacture an extensive range of medical device components, including catheters and tubing, connectors, handles or grips for surgical instruments, respiratory and anesthesia equipment, hearing aids, and more. LSR molding excels in fast, high-volume production, making it ideal for components that are less sensitive to pressure or impact, whereas STR is a slow and gentle process, well-suited for overmolding highly sensitive electronics such as PC boards and delicate cables.
