Process Squadra Nuvolari utilizes a plastic resin casting system. This provides the finest reproduction light lenses, plastic trim pieces and rapid prototype parts available. Using your original part as a pattern, a one-cavity composite tool is engineered. This composite tool or mold has many passageways to allow the polymer to gravity fill. Once finished, the tool is ready to receive the correct color of polymer. Polymers or casting resins are two-part materials very sensitive to moisture. To avoid moisture contamination in the polymers, Squadra Nuvolari stores all materials in nitrogen charged containers. After the material is measured in gram weight, it is then mixed together by hand and placed in our vacuum chamber. The de-aired materials are poured directly into the awaiting tool then placed in the autoclave for baking.        The end result is a dimensionally accurate, UV stable, color-exact part. Our procedure is completely non-automated. Each part is produced one at a time. When volume will not support hard tooling for injection molding, our process is the only way the parts can be produced.
