Want to know about the process of injection mold? Want to judge which process is better for mold production? Read this article to answer your doubts about injection mold technology.
According to different molding methods, injection molds are mainly divided into 4 processes: extrusion molding, injection molding, blow molding and high-foam polystyrene molding.
1. Extrusion molding process
Production equipment: plastic extruder
Manufacturing materials: carbon structural steel, alloy tools, etc.
Scope of application: It is mainly used to produce plastic products with continuous shape and thermoplasticity, and is widely used in the processing of pipes, plates and films.
2. Injection molding process
Production equipment: plastic injection molding machine
Manufacturing materials: carbon structural steel, carbon tool steel, alloy tool steel, high-speed steel, etc.
Scope of application: It is the most common process for the application of thermoplastic plastic products, from daily necessities to the manufacture of various parts such as machinery and electrical appliances.
3. Blow molding process
Production equipment: plastic blow molding machine
Manufacturing materials: raw materials with high carbon content
Scope of application: It is only used for the production of various kinds of hollow plastic products, such as beverage bottles and various plastic packaging containers.
4.High foaming polystyrene molding process
Production equipment: foaming machine
Manufacturing materials: cast aluminum, stainless steel, bronze, etc.
Scope of application: manufacturing foam plastic packaging materials, mainly used for the production of industrial packaging.
