Make high-volume production molds Directly from CAD/CAM and Rapid Prototyping models Fast without risk of damage from heat or pressure. 

Castaldo VLT (Very Low Temperature) brings to manufacturers what has been missing so far in the CAD/CAM revolution -Speed! Get your models into production in as little as 30 minutes!

Castaldo VLT vulcanizes at temperatures as low as 160° F / 71° C, making it ideal for creating tough, strong long-lasting production rubber molds directly from all types of plastic resin models. makes great molds from traditional wax carvings too!
