When molds and tooling are mentioned, what comes to mind are the parts that are produced through the use of processes like injection molding or plastic extrusion, blowing molding. These parts can be used for a number of different purposes across different fields and industries, and getting them right the first time is extremely crucial in the success of whatever process they will be used for. Mold...

Injection Molding for Thermoplastic Elastomers While people are talking about thermoplastic elastomers, we usually easily think of TPE.The injection molding process is adapted to TPEs rather readily. The various classes of TPEs will generally mold well. Historically, the thermoplatic urethanes were the exception due to their high viscosity, but in recent years TPU grades that injection mold ...

Plastic Injection Molding: Overmolding The overmolding process is to make a new part using a combination of two or three or even more kinds of plastic or elastomer materials. During the plastic overmolding process, usually hard material is first-shot, and then soft material will be the second shot over the first layer molded part. What is Overmolding? Overmolding is used for a range of application...

A draft angle is a slant that is applied to every side of most areas of an injection molded part. The angle, which is positioned to run toward the direction of a mold’s pull and parting line, helps demold the part from the mold cavity. When developing parts for plastic injection molding, no draft is designed into the part, it may run the risk of poor cosmetic finishes during part cools, such ...

The cooling time refers to the time required for the molten plastic inside the mold to cool and solidify, and accounts for 70% ~ 80% of the whole injection molding cycle time. The cooling time will directly affect the plastic product molding cycle time and output rate. The shorter is the molding time, the more parts would be able to produce with less time, and the lower overall costs. Proper ...

Thermoplastic injection molding is the most common method to manufacture parts. This kind of material is polymer that can be molten by heating and solidified by cooling again and again. It’s important to chose resonable material when injection molding. There are some kinds of thermoplastic that are common used to create products, which are as follows: Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) ABS is a...
