Get a Custom Silicone Mold or Product Quote

A useful quote starts with the object you need to receive, the application, the design information available and the expected quantity.

RUUIPON can review:

• RTV silicone casting molds;
• HCR/HTV compression-molded products;
• HCR/HTV tooling;
• LSR injection-molded parts;
• silicone overmolded / insert-molded assemblies;
• design/prototype projects.

If you are not sure which process fits, choose Not Sure — Recommend the Process.

Six Inputs That Make the Quote More Useful

1. Design Input

Send STEP/STP, STL/OBJ, PDF drawing, vector artwork, photos or physical-sample information.

2. What You Need to Receive

Choose:

• RTV Silicone Casting Mold
• HCR/HTV Silicone Product
• HCR/HTV Tooling
• LSR Silicone Part
• Silicone Overmolding / Insert Molding
• Design / Prototype Support
• Not Sure — Recommend the Process

3. Application / End Use

Explain what the mold will be filled with or what the finished silicone part must do.

4. Dimensions & Critical Requirements

Include overall dimensions, fit surfaces, target piece weight/volume where relevant, logo/detail, hardness if specified, sealing/function, cosmetic surfaces and real CTQs.

5. Quantity

State prototype quantity, first production quantity and expected repeat/annual volume if known.

6. Destination & Documentation

Include ship-to country/postcode, food-contact market if relevant, customer document requirements, Incoterm if known and needed-by date.

DFM Before Tooling

Review may cover:

• undercuts/release;
• parting line;
• split/core/support shell;
• wall/support;
• multi-cavity layout;
• logo/detail;
• material/process;
• fit;
• insert retention;
• production quantity;
• prototype acceptance.

Prototype Approval

Possible checks:

• fit;
• dimensions;
• release;
• target grams;
• surface;
• logo;
• tray handling;
• assembly;
• insert retention;
• function.

Tooling, CAD and Ownership Questions

If important, define in writing:

• CAD deliverables;
• editable/native files;
• production master custody;
• tooling custody;
• ownership;
• exclusivity;
• transfer/release rights;
• reorder/archive rights.

Tooling payment does not automatically answer every ownership question.

MOQ, design fees and lead time depend on the selected manufacturing process and project scope. Any applicable RTV mold minimums or modeling fees will be stated separately in the quotation.

What Happens After Submission

We review:

• manufacturing route;
• missing inputs;
• DFM/design scope;
• prototype/tooling requirement;
• quantity and production-volume assumptions;
• documentation;
• shipping.

Complete RFQs are easier to quote accurately.

FAQ

Can I request a quote without CAD?

Yes.

Is initial DFM free?

Initial manufacturability review can be included before formal design/tooling work. New CAD or substantial design work may be chargeable and should be quoted separately.

How quickly will I receive a quote?

Quotation timing depends on the completeness of your files and the technical review required. We will identify any missing information before confirming the quotation schedule.
