Objective: Create a rubber Tip insert using a 3D printed insert.

 

Materials:

3D printed Inserts:

  • For best quality, I got the inserts printed on a resin 3D printer (Formlabs Standard Resin (SLA), Layer height: 50μm) - 8 each.

Making the Silicon Mold:

  • Nicpro Adjustable Molds Housing for Silicone Mold Making. (Link)
  • 1/4 Clear Acrylic PlexiGlass Sheet (6" X 6"). (Link)
  • Mitreapel Silicone Mold Release Spray (Link)
  • Permatex 80050 Clear RTV Silicone Adhesive (Link)

Silicon to make mold:

  • BBDINO Silicone Mold Making Kit. (Link)

Liquid Urethane Rubber for casting:

  • Smooth-On VytaFlex 60 - Liquid Urethane Rubber.(Link)
  • Alumilite Dye Liquid Color - Black. (Link)
  • Gorilla 2 Part Epoxy Glue (Link)

 

 

Video Links:

Note: Some videos show how to de-gas both Silicon Mold and Poly-urethane rubber for best results, I didn’t de-gas any fluids for this project.
