What are the Disadvantages of Gas injection moldind?
There are no inherent disadvantages to the Gas Assist process. There are, however, a few circumstances where it would not be recommended. […]
introduction to Gas Assisted Injection Molding
1) Process Basics Gas Assist Injection Molding is a process enhancement to conventional injection molding, involving the injection of high-pressure nitrogen gas into the resin melt-stream immediately after injection of the resin. […]
the Process Cycle for an injection molding
The process cycle for injection molding is very short, typically between 2 seconds and 2 minutes, and consists of the following four stages: […]
Over-mold injection molding and two-shot injection molding
Over-mold injection molding and two-shot injection molding are two distinctly different molding methods even though both are used to combine multiple polymers into a single part. Because of this similarity, […]
How to choose plastic mold steel
Choosing plastic mold steel is a very important process in mold manufacturing, because the classification of plastic mold are generally on the length of plastic mold by 5 grades, grade1 is over a million times; grade 2 is 500,000-100 million; grade3 is from 300,000 to 500,000; grade4 is from 100,000 to 300,000, grade 5 is [...]
Introduction to Dip Molding and Coating
Candle making is probably one of the earliest dip molding/coating processes used in the industry. It is still in use today. Dip coating has also been an important branch of food processing. For example, chocolate and/or caramel are often coated on many nuts, cookies, and dry or fresh fruits. Dip molding and coating were widely [...]
Introduction to Metal Injection Molding (MIM)
Metal Injection Molding (MIM) is a variation on traditional plastic injection molding that enables the fabrication of solid metal parts utilizing injection molding technology. […]
more details in reducing energy and material consumption
Some designers would like to think that making things from recycled materials or designing them for marginally longer life will save the world, but in truth much of it will end up in landfill regardless. Take a drinks bottle – Do you buy a bottle made with recycled content, or use a refillable bottle? [...]
The reasons why replacing Metal with Plastics–2
1) gain greater product structural strength That third little pig really knew how to choose the right materials to build a strong house. Choosing plastic over metal gives you products which are light-weight, easier to use and yet possess increased structural strength. Plastic parts can be stronger than metal parts through the use of engineering [...]
The reasons why replacing Metal with Plastics–1
There are numerous reasons why replacing metal parts with plastic makes sense. Here’s why plastic may be the best option for your parts. […]
