  Plastic injection molding is the ideal way to produce wide range of simpler and complex plastic components at minimal time and cost. Many large and small companies opt for plastic injection molding services due to various reasons. The most popular reasons behind using these services are mentioned below- Greater affordability Plastic injection molding process is fully automatic; it is generally completed by robots and machines. Hardly one or two person is required for control and management of whole process till completion. Initial costs may seem a bit higher, but once an accurate mold is created, one can build large number of plastic components at a very low cost. Increased efficiency The production output rate tends to be higher using plastic injection molds. It is relatively quick to manufacture large number of parts from a pre-designed and approved mold. So, it is an efficient way for the production of large number of components at a minimal time. Possibilities of pl...

Have you ever seen bottle blow mold ? Well, it is most common type of mold manufactured through blow molding technique. Leave it; let’s understand about blow molding process, which is also known as blow moulding. Blow molding is a technique used in molding industry to create hollow objects made of plastic. It follows the same principle as used in glassblowing process. In blow molding process, heated plastic is blown into a mold cavity to create hollow objects of different shapes and sizes. Most of you get confused with the difference between blow molding and injection molding. The basic difference between these two processes is that blow molding is used to create hollow objects whereas injection molding is used to create solid objects. Generally, there are three types of blow molding process they are extrusion blow molding, injection blow molding, and injection stretch blow molding. Each have their own advantage and disadvantages. Common Blow Molding Products Almost every indus...

An industrial process that has transformed plastic molding is the insert molding. It uses the modern injection molding process, but with a little smartness to revamp the present day manufacturing. The process allows blending plastics and metal, or several other combinations of materials and components in a single unit. Quite different from conventional molding, it uses engineering plastics for better tensile strength as well as wear resistance and weight reduction. It also allows using metallic materials for better conductivity and strength. For insert molding, there must be an insert which can be made of metal or other materials. The use of metal inserts and bushings enhances the mechanical properties of plastic products. For the process, the insert has to be made before the final molding. So, manufacturers have to first consider tooling inserts before tooling the mold.   Benefits With Insert Molding There are many advantages which make it optimal for different applications...

The first step in making a high-quality part is designing a mold for manufacturability. It all begins with a mold. Building a tool is definitely a time-consuming process and requires a great deal of accuracy. In fact, tooling shaping parts or a mold parts represent the largest investment. Therefore, it is very crucial and also critical to the success of a project. If the manufacturing objective is to produce parts with a high degree of precision in large volumes, tooling becomes even more imperative and complex. Meeting of plastic with the mold The tool and the molding process both have to be customized as per the plastic type. There are different types of plastics and hence they require different molds. Amorphous plastics are less free-flowing and they tend to shrink less than crystalline or semi-crystalline plastics which ensure better flow with higher shrinkage. Hence, many projects require engineering resins to ensure better melt with less shrinkage. Machining Shrinkage of r...

  Accurate mold design is essential for ensuring quality in manufacturing plastic parts. However, designing and manufacturing a mold itself requires a lot of considerations and precision. Whether it’s about designing mold and its various components, called tooling, or selecting the best material, everything must be done carefully with high precision. Nicety-Mould, a leading mold maker and expert in plastic cap tooling , gives details about essential mold components and tooling. Base Mold base has mold core and cavity mounted to it. The base is then fixed to the platens inside the molding machine. The front half of the base has a support plate to attach the mold cavity, sprue bushing, and a locating ring. The rear half has the ejection system that has the mold core, and support plate. Gates Openings at the end of the runners to direct the flow of molten plastic into the mold cavity are called gates. Gates vary in shapes and sizes to suit the part design and resin materials...

The world of plastic injection molding has changed for the betterment of the manufacturing industries. As the products of molding finds application everywhere – from kitchen to the health care sector, all the products must be produced accurately and cost-effectively. Precision in molding is imperative to ensure quality and affordable production. Therefore, precision molding is the most sophisticated process of mold design in the manufacturing world. From precision tooling parts to designing and machining, all aspects require extreme attention.   The process of precision molding is hardly used in the development of the entire product, but used only in manufacturing of products that require an unusually precise form of plastic injection molding. It is used for small and infrequent productions. Precision Molding It’s a relative more technical process that requires the use of precision molds and precision tools. As expected, it differs from the conventional injection molding in ...

Molding speeds up the manufacturing process. Thanks to the constant innovations in the technology that it has improved further to deliver high-quality parts and components in less time. From single to multi-cavity molds, manufacturers have got choices to speed up production and make more profits. However, making a choice between single and multi-cavity mold depends on many factors. Considering those factors, you should ahead with multicavity cap tooling and mold making orders. Single or multicavity? In simple terms, the choice between single- or multi-cavity molds depends largely on timeframe and demand. If the manufacturing process involves making identical parts (like bottle caps) in large numbers within a set timeframe, a multi-cavity mold is the best choice. With multi-cavity mould, you can create more identical parts, quickly, and cost-effectively – a clear advantage of multi-cavity molding. However, multi-cavity moulds may not fit other projects. You must remember that too...

A mold is required to produce a product with high manufacturability – it means a high-quality, simple and efficient process that’s also easy to operate and maintain. Also, it should meet customer specifications at the lowest cost possible. Meeting all the expectations of customers depends how the tooling option has been designed. It must be designed to meet each customer’s needs. To make this happen, tooling decisions should remain at the top of design stages, whether it’s for plastic caps tooling or complex bottle closure tooling. Involving tool maker at the early stages ensures realistic machining perspectives on the product design, desired tolerances, tool design, material selection, and cost, of course. Considering this step upfront is essential to eliminate wasted efforts in rework, which could also cause the cost to go a little higher. For obvious reasons, customers are highly concerned about the cost. And why not, tool making is a highly cost-intensive process in production...
