๐Ÿ”ง Molding Process

Step 1: Material Preparation

Raw plastic pellets are dried and prepared according to material specifications. Proper drying prevents defects like splay marks and ensures optimal material properties.

Step 2: Injection

Molten plastic is injected into the mold cavity under high pressure (up to 2,000 bar). Our machines precisely control injection speed, pressure, and temperature for consistent part quality.

Step 3: Cooling

The plastic cools and solidifies in the mold. Optimized cooling channel design reduces cycle time and minimizes warpage. Cooling typically accounts for 60-70% of the total cycle time.

Step 4: Ejection

Finished parts are ejected from the mold using ejector pins or plates. Automated robotic systems handle part removal for high-volume production runs.

Step 5: Quality Inspection

Every batch undergoes rigorous quality checks including dimensional measurement, visual inspection, and functional testing. CMM inspection ensures ยฑ0.002mm accuracy for critical features.

๐Ÿ’ก Did You Know?

Proper gate design and location can reduce material waste by 15-20% and improve part quality significantly. Our free DFM analysis optimizes these parameters before mold manufacturing begins.
