Use ultra-thin molds to create hollow, lightweight, and detail-rich soft-gel parts—great for teaching models, biomimetics, and soft robotics.
Saltgator Playbook: Eggshell Mold Making
Join multiple molded parts together into larger or more complex assemblies, using either self-bonding soft-gel or PVC adhesive.
Saltgator Playbook: Multi-Part Bonding
Overmold soft-gel onto rigid components (like ABS or PETG) to add cushioning, grip, or flexible joints—perfect for hybrid designs.
Saltgator Playbook: SoftGel Over Hard Parts
Encapsulate a soft-gel interior with a hard outer mold to achieve strong yet flexible composites, often used in protection, toys, or functional prototypes.
Saltgator Playbook: Hard Shell Over SoftGel Core
Inject multiple colors sequentially or simultaneously to achieve gradients, color blocks, or marble effects for aesthetic and functional designs.
Saltgator Playbook: Multi-Color Injection
Experiment beyond standard molds—combine 3D printing, multi-material casting, and custom designs to explore limitless creative applications.
