Multi-component tools
The advantages of 2K tool handling
Stable process control in a machine.
Independent optimization of the components through thermal separation in the tool.
Better area balance thanks to the use of just one machine instead of two.
High degree of automation thanks to controlled parts handling.
RICO is one of the world market leaders and has the greatest experience in 2K mold construction in the silicone sector. With RICO's 2K technology, the perfect thermal separation leads to independent process control of the respective components in the mold. This means that multi-component parts can also be produced in a fully automated injection molding process. It is also possible to overmold inserts.
Silicone is one of RICO's core competencies. In addition to our comprehensive expertise in the injection molding of first-class silicone parts using single-component technology, we also have many years of experience in the production of multi-component molds. For us, one component is always silicone, which we combine with other materials by chemical or mechanical bonding.
The possible combinations
are manifold:
Silicone + silicone
Thermoplastic + silicone
Metal + silicone
Glass + silicone
Silicone + other materials
