I will silicone mold design vacuum casting resin casting mold rapid prototyping mold 2d


About this gig
Need a silicone mold designed for vacuum casting or resin prototyping? I design production-ready silicone mold tooling for low-volume manufacturing, rapid prototyping, and product testing before committing to expensive injection tooling.
What I deliver:
- Mold block design with correct parting lines and draft angles for clean part release
- Venting and pour gate placement to avoid air traps and short shots
- Shrinkage compensation based on your resin/urethane type
- Full 3D CAD files (STEP + native) plus 2D manufacturing drawings
I work with product designers, startups building MVPs, and small manufacturers who need functional prototypes fast without the cost or lead time of steel injection molds. Send me your part geometry (STL, STEP, or sketch) and target material, and I'll flag any design-for-manufacture issues before we start.
Delivery style preference
Please inform the freelancer of any preferences or concerns regarding the use of AI tools in the completion and/or delivery of your order.

FAQ
What do you need from me to start?
Send your part geometry as an STL, STEP, or IGES file, or a clear sketch with dimensions. If you don't have a file yet, a reference image or detailed description also works to get started.
What materials can this mold be used with?
Molds are designed for silicone (RTV), urethane resin, and polyurethane casting materials. Let me know your target material so I can adjust wall thickness and shrinkage allowances accordingly.
How many parts can I cast from one mold?
This depends on the material and complexity, but silicone molds typically last 15-25 pours for RTV silicone and up to 50+ for urethane, depending on part geometry and demolding care.
Do you provide 2D drawings along with the 3D file?
Yes, every package includes a 2D technical drawing alongside the 3D CAD file so you or your manufacturer have complete dimensional reference.
Can you design multi-cavity or multi-part molds?
Yes. Multi-cavity and split-mold designs are available on Standard and Premium packages — message me with your part complexity so I can recommend the right approach.
