Room Temperature Vulcanized (RTV) rubber molding complements rapid prototyping. RTV molding satisfies your need for multiple prototypes with enhanced material properties, while protecting your most valuable assets…time and money. Early in the design cycle, durable prototypes may be required in larger quantities. Due to the likelihood of design changes, or short deadlines, a commitment to hard tooling may not be practical. RTV molding economically bridges the gap between rapid prototyping and hard tooling by providing prototypes in one to two weeks at a fraction of the cost.
