EDM different material at the same
“Can I die sink EDM two different workpiece materials at the same time?” is a frequently asked EDM question, especially in mold manufacturing where tool steels and copper alloys are often involved. […]
Some Injection Mold Design Points
1)Incorrect material selection – The coefficient of thermal expansion for all steel, hardened steels, copper & aluminum, must be taken into consideration when designing and building tools. Large differences can cause damage and uneven wear to all components. […]
Some issues we met in some molds
Some of the issues our team has experienced, and that have caused issues with the mold running, are listed below: […]
Some Plastic Injection Part Design Issues
1) Part designed with incorrect wall thickness – The part should be designed with the thinnest wall section the part can tolerate (taking into account strength, functionality and other critical aspects of the design). The two risks as: […]
This new cooling technology improves the cooling efficiency of the mold
When it comes to any new technology, the trick is determining the right time to buy in, and that has been a definite challenge for mold builders looking to invest in additive manufacturing (AM). […]
This kind of hot runner system can greatly increase production efficiency
A new nozzle design developed by an certain mold builder abandons the usual round opening for a wide slit to allow for up to 25% faster cycle times, lower shear and injection pressure. […]
The lamp mold design is not easy
The headlight housing is part of the headlight base and wiring harness before installation. It belongs to the internal functional components, and the external components have many assembly dimensions. The lamp holder has high precision and the installation harness has a large size. The lamp mold is part of the headlight lamp cover part, the [...]
Some tips for the mold design of the car door panel
The car door panel is an important part of the automotive interior. It is located on the inside of the door and has four points: front, back, left and right.There are usually two or four doors depending on the car system. These parts are collectively referred to as the door panel series. The car door [...]
The basic characteristics of car bumpers
Car bumpers are one of the most important exterior parts of a car. It not only has sufficient strength and rigidity, but also acts as a buffer in collision accidents, protects the body, and pursues harmony with the shape of the body. […]
Some experience in extending mold life
An injection-molded part is only as good as the mold that produces it. If a mold prematurely fails during production, it’s not only bad news for the molder who loses valuable production time — and possibly even a customer — but especially for the moldmaker, who promises his customers a long service life, fast injection [...]
