Capabilities
Engineered for Precision. Built for Performance.
At Sheridan Mold & Engineering, we specialize in designing and building high-performance LSR (Liquid Silicone Rubber) and rubber molds, including micro molds for critical parts with extreme tolerances. From flashless cold deck systems to complex, multi-action tooling, we push the boundaries of what's possible in silicone and rubber moldmaking.
Our customers rely on Sheridan for full-service mold development, from early design collaboration to precision machining, validation, and long-term support.
LSR & Rubber Moldmaking
Our team brings deep expertise across silicone and rubber moldmaking, partnering early in the development cycle to solve complex design challenges before they reach the press. We specialize in high-performance, flashless cold deck systems that reduce material waste, eliminate post-mold trimming, and maintain consistent shot-to-shot quality—streamlining production and helping you get to market faster.
Micro Molding Expertise
We specialize in tooling for micro-sized parts, including components under .100” in length, with complex side actions and intricate core configurations. Our team can align a .010” core pin into a .011” hole across opposing mold halves—precision that’s essential in medical, electronics, and connector applications. These molds are engineered to maintain tight tolerances, reduce scrap, and support consistent high-volume production.
Cold Deck & Flashless Mold Systems
We design advanced cold runner systems with universal base and cold nozzle integration to minimize waste and improve process efficiency. Flashless tooling eliminates the need for post-mold trimming, improving part quality and reducing secondary operations. Our heated platen designs deliver consistent silicone flow and cycle stability—ideal for high-volume, precision LSR production.
Fully Automated Mold Solutions
We offer turnkey tooling systems with integrated automation, including robotic part handling and end-of-arm tooling. Designed for lights-out production, our solutions support pick-and-place systems, insert loading, and automated demolding. This automation not only boosts productivity but also helps manufacturers meet strict quality standards with fewer manual touchpoints.
