What is Vacuum Casting?

Vacuum casting is a precise manufacturing technique that uses polyurethane resins and silicone molds to create accurate replicas of master patterns. By operating under vacuum conditions, this method eliminates air bubbles, ensuring exceptional detail and surface quality. It is a cost-effective alternative to injection molding, particularly suited for prototypes, small to medium production runs, and intricate designs.

At XC Machining, our vacuum casting services deliver high-quality results with shorter lead times, combining precision with versatility. The process allows for customization, including clear or colored finishes, specialized coatings, and the integration of functional inserts.

CNC Machining Surface Finishes

XC Machining offers a variety of surface finishes to enhance the functionality, durability, and aesthetics of CNC machined parts.
Sand Blasting
Sand blasting uses pressurized sand or other media to clean and texture the surface, producing a consistent, matte finish.
Brushed Finish
A brushed finish creates a unidirectional satin texture, reducing the appearance of scratches and marks on the surface.
Anodizing
Anodizing enhances corrosion resistance and wear properties while enabling color dyeing, making it ideal for aluminum components.
Power Coating
Powder coating applies a durable, wear-resistant layer with excellent color and texture choices, perfect for various surfaces.
Polishing
Polishing delivers a high-gloss surface, minimizing roughness and boosting the aesthetic appeal of metal parts.
Electroplating
Electroplating deposits a thin metal layer onto parts, enhancing wear resistance, corrosion protection, and surface conductivity.
