Compressi<strong>on</strong> moulding is a<br />
closed mould process and you<br />
apply high pressure <strong>on</strong> the job.<br />
It is best used when you have<br />
low to medium producti<strong>on</strong><br />
volumes for larger parts<br />
where tightest tolerances and<br />
flawless finishes are not<br />
required.<br />
Examples may include<br />
diaphragms, valves and<br />
gaskets, Dampers, O-rings,<br />
seals, rubber wear parts, etc<br />
depending up<strong>on</strong> their areas of<br />
applicati<strong>on</strong>.<br />
