Automotive Parts Mold Injection
What is the injection molding process?
Injection molding is the process of using the thermal and physical properties of plastic to add materials from a hopper to a barrel. The outside of the barrel is heated by a heating coil, causing the material to melt. Inside the barrel, there is a screw that is driven to rotate by an external power motor.
The material used in injection molding is transported forward and compacted along the screw groove under the action of the screw. The material is gradually melted and homogenized under the dual effects of external heating and shearing. When the screw rotates, the material is pushed to the head by the shearing force, and at the same time, the material retreats under the reaction force, forming a storage space and completing the plasticization process.
Then, under the action of the piston thrust of the injection cylinder, the molten material in the storage chamber of the injection molding is injected into the mold cavity through the nozzle at high speed and high pressure. After the molten material in the mold cavity is pressurized, cold solidified, and solidified, the mold is opened under the action of the mold closing mechanism, and the molded product is ejected from the mold through the ejection device to complete the injection molding process
Is the delivery time of simple injection molds long?
The method of making simple injection molds is not much different from other molds, and there are still so many production processes: drawing review, material preparation, processing, mold frame processing, mold core processing, electrode processing, mold part processing, inspection, assembly, flying mold, trial mold, and production. No process can be omitted. Because the ultimate goal is to achieve the desired effect for the customer, we cannot just brush it off and make rough workmanship just because the mold is simple.
So it's not that the delivery time of simple injection molds will be shortened, because whether it's a simple or complex process, it's the same. The simpler the mold, the more precise and refined it needs to be. The product made in this way appears less simple, but rather simple and sophisticated. The simpler the mold, the better it should be, which can reflect the technology and strength of mold making.
Is it difficult to make injection molds for automotive parts?
There are many types of automotive parts, such as plastic guide wheel covers and storage boxes The steering wheel shell, door handles... these all require injection molds for automotive parts to be molded. Is it difficult to make injection molds for automotive parts?
The injection mold for automotive parts is first and foremost because the materials used for automotive parts must have sufficient strength, rigidity, hardness, and wear resistance. So the mold should also achieve this effect. If the hardness of the steel used in the mold is not enough, the mold will have various abnormal problems such as batch peak, mold collapse, and burrs. The precision of the mold is also very important. The second is materials: materials need to undergo various tests such as fire resistance, hardening, and toughness.
So making injection molds for automotive parts is still difficult, as automotive parts are products that undergo functional testing. To meet various testing and assembly requirements.
