Vacuum and Pressure Chambers
Create Bubble-Free Castings and Molds
Pressure Systems (pressure chambers and compressors) offer the optimal method for creating molds and resin castings that are truly bubble free.
Vacuum Systems (vacuum chambers and vacuum pumps that pull 29 inches of mercury) are used to remove the air from high viscosity materials like silicone rubber before pouring. They are also ideal for vacuum degassing liquid plastics for making bubble free castings.
