★ Quality Assurance

Four-stage
quality protocol.

01

Compound In

Rheology test (cure curve), hardness, viscosity, specific gravity verified per batch.

02

Tool Validation

FAI on first cure run: dimensional, flash, bonding, visual standards.

03

In-Process

Cure time / temperature / pressure logged. Hardness, dimensional sampled every shift.

04

Final Test

100% visual on critical parts, AQL on dimensional, tensile, compression set, ageing tests.

★ Frequently Asked

Questions,
answered.

Compression vs injection molding?
Compression: slower, lower tooling cost, ideal for low-volume and very large parts. Injection: fast, high-volume, tighter tolerances — ideal for 50k+ pieces/year.
How to choose elastomer?
Magnus considers operating temperature, chemical exposure, hardness, compression set, regulatory compliance. DFM consultation with material recommendations included.
FKM/Viton suppliers in India?
Yes — multiple suppliers handle FKM (Viton equivalent). Types A, B, F, ETP available with hardness 65-90 Shore A.
India vs China comparison?
India is world’s 3rd largest rubber producer. 8-15% cheaper for NBR/EPDM/natural rubber. Silicone gap narrows to 3-8%.
