Moulding Custom Seals

If you are developing, or have developed, a seal with a rubber moulding requirement, drop us a line.

AVMR are not experts in Seal Design, but we do know a lot about materials selection, testing, and high precision moulding. Whether you need just one or a lot, AVMR are a reliable partner.

Not only that, AVMR have industry leading Delivery Performance with OTIF (on time & in full) typically averaging 90%*.

For example, AVMR worked with a customer to develop tooling and materials for a highly complex 3D Subsea Seal, with notable compatibility challenges. We now manufacture the seal and have not had one quality or delivery issue since it was commissioned.

* OTIF data includes R&D Projects and 3rd Party issues.

Manufacturing Bespoke Seals

Many seals start life as a long extruded "rope" of rubber which is cut to length.  The extrusion gives the seal its 3D profile.  The ends of each length are then welded together using one of 3-4 possible welding techniques. 

AVMR do not currently extrude or weld rubber, we mould the seal as a single continuous part, which has a number of benefits and downsides.  Moulded seals do not have the weak point which is more typical of an extruded seal, however the tooling cost for moulded seals is normally higher.

Moulded seals typically have much stronger bonds than extruded seals, so if the seal must be bonded, it is worth considering moulding it.
