Vacuum chambers are frequently used when mixing resins and silicone rubbers. A vacuum chamber is needed when manufacturing resins and silicone rubber to insure that the mold is free of air bubbles. A small vacuum chamber is needed for eliminating air bubbles for materials prior to their setting. The material utilized for molding or casting is created according to its manufacturers instructions. When this type of material is placed in a vacuum, it will normally expand to over 4 times its initial volume, consequently the vacuum chamber must be large enough to handle this volume expansion. If this is not the case, there will not be enough volume in the chamber to finish the process. The container in which the material is held is put into a vacuum chamber and the vacuum is applied when the vacuum pump is turned on. After the vacuum gets to 982 mbar, the material will start to rise. . After the material reaches its full volume it will stabilize and not rise any further. The material is maintained in the vacuum for 3 more minutes in insure that all air has been removed from it. Once this interval is reached the vacuum pump is shut off and the vacuum chamber release valve is opened to equalize air pressure. At this point the vacuum chamber is opened and the substrate is removed and put into a mold.
