class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Vacuum casting (silicone mold replication) and CNC machining are the two most common ways to make low-volume plastic parts \u2014 and their precision sits a full order of magnitude apart. A machined plastic part holds \u00b10.01\u20130.1 mm; a vacuum-cast part typically holds \u00b10.1\u20130.3 mm. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But that headline gap hides the more interesting story: why casting accuracy behaves the way it does, where the variation actually comes from, and when \u00b10.1 mm is more than good enough. This article puts both processes under the caliper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>1.

There is no melting, no curing, no phase change \u2014 and therefore no shrinkage. The final dimension is whatever the machine&#8217;s positioning system produces: general plastic machining at \u00b10.05\u20130.1 mm (ISO 2768-m class work), precision plastic machining at \u00b10.01\u20130.05 mm with sharp tooling, proper feeds, and temperature control, and metal machining at \u00b10.005\u20130.025 mm on the same machines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What few buyers realize: machining plastics is actually harder than machining metals at the precision end, because plastics are soft (tool pressure deflects thin walls), thermally expansive, and sometimes hygroscopic (nylon swells with moisture). Good shops compensate with sharp single-flute cutters, air or mist cooling, stress-relieved stock, and final passes at low engagement. Done properly, every critical dimension can be CMM-verified against the drawing \u2014 ISO 2768 classes, GD&amp;T callouts, and all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Where machining loses: geometry. Internal closed cavities, deep undercuts, and organic shapes can be physically unreachable by a rotating cutter. And cost scales with part count \u2014 every one of 20 parts costs roughly the same machine time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>3.

It is the product of a four-link chain, and each link adds its own variation:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Link 1 \u2014 The master pattern.<\/strong> The silicone mold copies the master with near-perfect fidelity, so the master&#8217;s accuracy becomes the batch&#8217;s ceiling. A high-resolution SLA master (itself accurate to \u00b10.05\u20130.1 mm) is the standard; a sloppy master dooms every copy. Rule: the master must be better than the tolerance you need.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Link 2 \u2014 The silicone mold.<\/strong> Silicone cures around the master with minimal shrinkage and excellent detail capture \u2014 down to surface texture. But silicone is a soft tool: it flexes slightly under resin pressure and during demolding, unlike a rigid steel cavity.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Link 3 \u2014 Resin cure shrinkage.<\/strong> The biggest source of dimensional variation. Two-part polyurethane shrinks as it polymerizes: +0.15% for quality low-shrink grades, up to ~1% for others. On a 100 mm dimension, 0.15% is 0.15 mm \u2014 right at the edge of a \u00b10.1 mm tolerance band. Experienced shops compensate by scaling the master, controlling cure temperature, and choosing low-shrink resins. Thick-and-thin sections shrink unevenly, which is why irregular geometries can deviate or warp.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Link 4 \u2014 Mold aging.<\/strong> Each casting cycle thermally and mechanically stresses the silicone. Over a mold&#8217;s 15\u201325-shot life, it gradually deforms: part #20 will measure slightly different from part #1. For most applications the drift is small, but for precision fits it must be planned \u2014 critical assemblies should come from early shots, or from a fresh mold.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"618\" src=\"https:\/\/utelymachine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/casting-edited-1024x618.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3478\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.6569726202298198;width:560px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/utelymachine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/casting-edited-1024x618.png 1024w, https:\/\/utelymachine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/casting-edited-300x181.png 300w, https:\/\/utelymachine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/casting-edited-768x463.png 768w, https:\/\/utelymachine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/casting-edited-1536x926.png 1536w, https:\/\/utelymachine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/casting-edited-18x12.png 18w, https:\/\/utelymachine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/casting-edited.png 1900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Pouring PU resin under vacuum \u2014 every shot adds a little wear to the soft silicone tool.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>4.
