Most molds are made of hardened or pre-hardened steel. Hardened steel (post-process heat treatment) has better wear resistance and longer service life than pre-hardened steel. Although steel molds are more expensive than molds made from other materials such as aluminum, they are more durable and support higher productivity before they need to be replaced. Design [...]
Manufacturability Design and Engineering (DFM) – A team of custom molds and design engineers can work with your team to provide first-class component design support. […]
Consider the wall thickness. Some factories will tell you that they can only produce injection mold parts with consistent wall thickness. While this can make manufacturing parts easier, it is not part of the overall process. […]
Don’t forget the necessity of this process. Quickly review the injection molding process: the two parts of a mold are hollow with negative images of your parts. […]
Designing moving objects in a static CAD environment is a challenge that mold designers have faced for many years. Currently, […]
Standardization is good for improving the quality of work, reducing delivery time and costs. Create a rich model library and related components that can be easily reused in new tools, which simplifies the design process and greatly reduces error space. […]
3-D solid design greatly simplifies the standardization and synchronization between design and manufacturing, reduces errors, speeds up delivery, and achieves more reliable results. […]
The fused materials in the mold cavity restore from viscous and fluid state to glassy state after being cooled. After complete cooling and molding, […]
When the screw stops rotating and moves backward, the mold clamping part begins to work to close the mold and the injection unit subsequently moves forward to make the nozzle and mold spruing gate joint with each other; […]
The raw materials of plastics fall into the charging barrel from the hopper and are sent forward by the rotating screw. While in the charging barrel, the plastics, on the one hand, receive heating and warming from outside of the barrel, and on the other hand, are compacted due to the gradual reduction of the [...]
