| Summary: | The paper presents an application of additive method of Fused Deposition Modeling for manufacturing of small series of elastic models. Additive FDM technology is used to produce a casting mould for multiple use. Process of manufacturing of small series of products consists in casting a two-component silicone rubber degassed using vacuum chamber into a multiple use mould. The paper shows the course of the process and related problems on the example of industrial product – a cylindrical seal. The casting mould was produced out of ABS material using BST 1200 machine, whereas casted elastic models were made out of XTX 45 silicone rubber. |
