Material tests
What was first simulated on the PC now needs to be tested on the real product. For the validation of the product design on the real component, we use real components but also test plates for pull tests to check the dynamic material parameters and the elongation. In the plug-in test, for example, attention is paid to how much force is required to assemble the product.
Leak tests as well as long-term temperature and climate tests shorten the development times and check the function of the part even before it goes into series production. Ongoing tests for material development show us general mechanical properties of various materials.
It is also possible to create functional models within a very short time.

Product Development
Product development
At starlim, we have extensive material and process knowledge about the phenomenon of silicone. With reference to your requirements, we start with the product development together.
Tool making
Tool making
In our in-house tool shop, the molds for the injection molding production of the starlim are designed and built. This makes us flexible and independent.
Rapid Tooling
Rapid Tooling
Receiving the first near-series LSR parts from starlim after just 10 days is possible thanks to rapid tooling from sterner. This concept was developed in order to be able to offer customers the first injection molded parts within a short period of time.
Test tool
Test tool
With the help of a test tool, we can manufacture the first LSR injection molded parts for starlim’s customers under series conditions within a very short time.
Silicone Micro Molding
Micro-silicone components lighter than 10 mg
Silicone micro molding is a specialized manufacturing process employed to produce extremely small precision silicone components. It is a further development of the classic injection molding process where the focus is on the processing of silicone in microscopic dimensions. We at starlim are capable of manufacturing micro-silicone components weighing less than 10 mg with precision undercuts and indentations.
Clean room
Clean room
In order to have a controlled environment for the production of the purest silicone parts, starlim has its own clean room. This is certified according to the classes ISO 14644-1 class 7 & 8 as well as GMP class C&D.
Production
Production
In the fully automatic injection molding process, one-component and multi-component parts are made from silicone at starlim. Production takes place at the Austrian locations in Marchtrenk, Weißkirchen and Lambach as well as in our Canadian branch in London / Ontario.
