the number of molding cycles is up to 500K, used for medium-sized production volume. This is the most frequently used mold class. There is a wide range for selecting mold materials. Additional requirement for this mold class:
1) it is recommended for having detailed design document.
2) the mold base hardness>13.5HRC.
3) the cavity surface ( on both fixed and moving half) hardness>25HRC
The advantages of plastic injection molding
1) Higher Efficiency
The use of injection molds for mass production is great for achieving higher efficiency. Once designed for a specific purpose based on a customers choice, molding process doesn’t take long. This makes it a lot more effective in mass production and also a lot more efficient in output rate.
2) It Has Enhanced Strength.
The use of additives such as fibre glass in plastic material is very common. These highly engineered compounded plastic materials carry characteristics of durability of its raw materials. And, there are thousands of different types of materials in the market to suit different needs.
On top of that, the density of plastic just as it is being molded gives it greater strength. Strong and durable parts are very much needed in the market place, and plastic injection molding gives you the flexibility that not a lot of other molding processes can offer.
3) Gives Products Detailed Features
The injection molds are a great way to give you mass-produce a good and detailed feature, and since they are subjected to high pressure. Thanks to this extreme and excessive-high pressure, it tends to provide great detail and design on all parts of your parts or products. Secondary processes can be saved such as texturing, and through 2K or 3K molding methods, you save a lot of labor costs on assembly and the finishings are a lot more impressive.
4) Making Simultaneous Multiple Parts
Another major advantage when it comes to the use of plastic injection molding is that you can actually simultaneously manufacture different parts within the same mold. One shot of the molten plastic produces different parts to be assembled. Consistency in colors for different parts, is also a great determinant in designing the mold this way.
5) Saves Cost.
Thanks to the automation in plastic injection molding processes, mass production most often leads to the lowering of manufacturing cost. Injection moldings are usually automated, and it is all done by machines, robots, and/or an operator for all the quality control and management. The automation helps with significant costs savings in the manufacturing process.
6) It Is Cheaper than Plastic Machining, and More Lasting.
It is a lot cheaper as mentioned and give you the best without having to pay a large sum of money. As we know, the initial creation of mold can be very expensive but with mass production, each parts will cost significantly lower than say, a metal part. It is actually not economical to make low volume parts with plastic injection molding due to the high initial cost of making a mold.
7)Global Usage.
Plastic injection molding is one of the most popular plastic producing processes around the globe. Anywhere you look, anywhere you are, you will see lots of products made through this process.
The cost of injection molding depends on the number of products produced.
I agree with your classification. It’s very scientific.
In injection molding production, your classification is still reasonable.
In fact, the production size of injection molding determines the cost. I can understand your blog
As an injection engineer, I agree with your classification of the number of injection molding.
You’re very professional in classifying it,actually it’s the same thing in real production
The cost of injection is closely related to the cost of the product
It makes a lot of sense to grade the number of injection molding cycles like this
I agree with your classification,because that is the reason why we make mould
I agree your saying about injection molding number
I am sure your analysis is correct, as an injection molding engineer, I support your opinion
I agree your definition
this is a good definition
you should be an expert in injection molding industry:-)
I agree your definition
that is an interesting and professional definition, Excellent blog!
I think your definition like this is reasonable
your definition is correct!
your suggestion is very useful
I agree with you at all, I will use it as reference
thanks for your definition. it is very important to know it
thanks for your definition
this concept is good for mould cost control
at this kind of production, mold manufacturing requirement is different
Your method of describing everything in this post is really nice,
every one can effortlessly know it, Thanks a lot.
Nice post. I learn something totally new and challenging on websites I stumbleupon everyday.
It’s always interesting to read through articles from other writers and
use something from other web sites.
Howdy! This is my 1st comment here so I just wanted to give a quick shout out and tell you I really enjoy reading your posts.
Can you recommend any other blogs/websites/forums that
deal with the same topics? Thanks a lot!
thanks for your valuable comment, hope you often visit our website, as for any other blogs/websites/forums that
deal with the same topics, because we are always so busy that We seldom go to care about those, maybe google can help you, what do you think?
the blog platform we use is WordPress, we are glad to hear that you are planning to start your own blog in the near future, actually WordPress can meet your requirement.
Hi there would you mind sharing which blog platform you’re working with?
I’m planning to start my own blog in the near future but I’m
having a tough time selecting between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
The reason I ask is because your design seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something unique.
P.S Sorry for being off-topic but I had to ask!
