You can make an overmolding prototype by pouring one material over another. This helps you create a part with different features. Vacuum casting for rapid prototyping lets you mix materials like hard plastics and soft elastomers in one part. This method is good when you need strong layers to stick together. It is important to pick materials that work well together and stick well. Here are some common materials used: Material Type Description Rigid Polyurethanes They resist impacts and chemicals. Flexible Polyurethanes People use them for bendy parts. Soft Rubber It gives grip or makes things softer. Elastomers These are…
