Today, Rui will tell you what are the benefits of plastic injection molding and processing?
Plastic injection molding is one of the best choices for manufacturing various plastic components. The production method is based on injecting heated material into a perfectly formed mold. The mold is custom-made, giving full control over the size and shape of the final product.
Here are some of the most pleasing qualities of plastic injection molding:
Flexibility
The flexibility of plastic injection molding means that almost any plastic part or part of a precise specification can be manufactured to meet demand. It is used in many different fields, including manufacturing parts and medical equipment parts.
This method not only makes it easy to change the color of individual parts, but also the actual type of material. Moreover, fillers can be added to the liquid plastic when the liquid plastic is injected into the mold. Fillers help reduce the density of plastics, resulting in higher strength and durability of parts.
cut the expenses
This is a relatively fast method of producing parts and helps save production costs. The speed at which each part is made will vary with the complexity of the mold, but typically the time range for standard parts is 15 to 30 seconds per cycle. In addition, the ability to rely on custom molds means that the risk of human error during production is much lower. This is another step in managing costs and streamlining operations.
Minimal error
The precise nature of the mold means that the plastic injection molding process is very consistent and almost prevents errors. The accuracy level can be within 0.005 inches. However, this is based on creating high-quality mold housings to ensure that every part produced is 100% accurate.
Resourceful material
Plastic injection molding has almost no waste during the entire production process. The mold can accept the correct number to create the required part, and any excess or remaining material can be easily ground and reused in the next part or project.
Cheaper than alternatives
In the long run, plastic injection molding methods are more cost-effective than alternative methods such as plastic processing. The up-front cost of manufacturing the mold can cost thousands of dollars. Once the mold is ready, other costs in the process are minimized.
Design limitations
Although this molding technology is versatile, it still has its limitations and is only suitable for smaller objects that can be placed in special molds. This process applies to a single project. Similarly, different materials and designs can affect the thickness of the product wall.
