SALTGATOR Debuts Desktop Soft-Gel Injection Machine on Kickstarter — A Game-Changer for Makers
Industrial-Grade Soft Molding Now Fits on Your Desk, Empowering DIY Creators, Educators, and Entrepreneurs
DICKINSON, Texas, July 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SALTGATOR Tech Inc., an Dickinson-based startup dedicated to accessible fabrication tools, is proud to announce the launch of its Kickstarter campaign for the SALTGATOR — the world’s first desktop soft-gel injection molding machine. Compact, safe, and remarkably versatile, SALTGATOR puts industrial-grade molding capabilities into the hands of everyday creators.
Designed for desktops, workshops, or classrooms, the SALTGATOR measures just 13×6×5.5 inches and supports precise heating up to 410°F (210°C). Fully enclosed and insulated, it safely processes up to 4 fl oz of softgel material, enabling users to create custom items like dual-tone fishing lures, silicone grips, cosplay props, keyboard caps, and squishy toys — all within minutes.
“We believe manufacturing tools belong on every creator’s desk,” said a SALTGATOR spokesperson. “Our goal is to empower the next generation of inventors with professional molding capabilities — without the cost, complexity, or hazards of traditional industrial equipment.”
Key Benefits:
- Compact and Powerful – Industrial-level injection molding in a desktop-sized device
- Multi-Material Support – Compatible with thermoplastic elastomers and 3D-printed molds (PLA, PETG, resin)
- Eco-Friendly & Reusable – Remelt and reuse materials to reduce waste and cost
- No Hidden Costs – No subscriptions, no proprietary cartridges — just refill and go
- Beginner-Friendly Interface – Simple control panel, auto shut-off, and fume-free operation for total peace of mind
