Polycarbonate Injection Molding

What is a Polycarbonate (PC) Injection Molding?

Polycarbonate injection molding is an injection molding part made of PC (polycarbonate) material. It is a manufacturing process to produce products by inserting molten PC (polycarbonate) into a mold. Usually, the melt temperature for PC material is between 270 and 320 degrees Celsius. It may decompose at high temperatures and cause defects like bubbles, black spots, etc. Typically, the injection pressure is controlled between 80 and 120 MPa.

Polycarbonate (PC) is an amorphous thermoplastic. These polymers allow the transmission of light, like glass. An important feature is that they can be heated to their melting point, cooled, and heated again without degrading themselves. As PC can liquify, you can undertake injection molding. They are resistant to heat and can be used with flame-retardant materials. The molding parts are made of polycarbonate, which we call polycarbonate injection molding.

What is Polycarbonates or PC Material

Polycarbonate is generally called PC. Because of its excellent mechanical properties, this is commonly known as bullet-proof plastic. PC injection molding has high mechanical strength, a wide temperature range, good electrical insulation properties (anti-arc performance is unchanged), good dimensional stability and transparency, etc.

It is widely used in electrical products, electric meter enclosures, and electronic product structural members. There are many modified products of PC, usually added with glass fiber, mineral fillers, chemical fire retardants, and other plastics. PC has poor fluidity, and it needs high temperatures when working on the PC injection molding.

The Polycarbonate injection molding process

  1. Material processing

    Polycarbonate injection molding has high water absorption. So before injection molding, it must be preheated and dried. The pure polycarbonate is dried at 120 °C, and the modified PC should generally be dried for more than 4 hours at a temperature of 110 °C. The drying time should not exceed 10 hours. Generally, you can use the method of air extrusion to determine whether it’s dry enough. The utilization of recycled materials can reach 20%. In some cases, the utilization of recycled materials can be 100%; the actual quantity is subject to the quality requirements of the products. Recycled materials can’t mix different masterbatch simultaneously, or it will seriously damage the nature of the finished product.

  2. Selection of an injection molding machine

    Now, for cost and other reasons, PC often uses modified materials, especially electrical products, which should increase fireproof performance. When the flame-retardant PC and other plastic alloy products are molded, it should make sure the plasticizing system of the injection molding machine mixes well and is corrosion-resistant. It is unachievable for the conventional plasticizing screw. So when choosing, you should state in advance that, usually, there are special PC screws for customers to choose from.

  3. Design of mold and gate for polycarbonate injection molding

    The common mold temperature is 80–100 °C, and the temperature of mold adding glass fiber is 100–130 °C. Small products can use the pinpoint gate; the gate depth should be 70% of the thickest part; and other gates are circular and rectangular. If the gate is bigger, it’s better, which can reduce the defects caused by excessive shear. The depth of the vent should be less than 0.03-0.06 mm; the runner should be short and round. The ejection gradient is generally about 30′-1.

  4. Melt temperature for Polycarbonate material

    You can use the gas injection method to determine the processing temperature. Generally, the polycarbonate injection molding processing temperature is 270–320 °C. The temperature of the PC with some modification or low molecular weight is 230–270 °C.

  5. Injection speed

    When molding, relatively fast injection speeds are usually adopted, such as for electrical switch parts. Commonly, it is from slow to rapid injection molding.

  6. Packing

    Packing is 10 bars around; it can be appropriately reduced without the gas lines and color mixing.

  7. Dwell time

    If the materials stay at high temperatures for a long time, they will degrade, emit CO2, and turn yellow. You should use PS to clean the cylinder, not LDPE, POM, ABS, or PA.

  8. Special notes

    Some modified PC injection molding material, as being recycled many times (the molecular weight decreased) or an uneven mix of ingredients, would easily produce the dark brown liquid bubble.

Produce high-quality polycarbonate injection molding parts that need a special injection barrel because polycarbonate has a high density. Nominal injection barrels make it hard to mold polycarbonate materials.

The key point to select injection molding machine for PC Plastic Injection molding parts

Clamping force:

The finished projected area per square centimeter is multiplied by 0.47 to 0.78 tons (or per square inch by 3 to 5 tons).
The size of the machine: A finished weight is approximately 40–60% of the capacity of the injection molding machine. If the machine puts polystyrene as the capacity (oz), which needs to be decreased by 10%, At the beginning, which is used as GUANG DA’s capacity, 1 ounce is 28.3 grams.

Screw: Screw length should be at least 15 diameters long; L/DD of 20:1 is the best. The compression ratio is preferably between 1.5:1 and 30:1. The stop valve in front of the screw should be set into a sliding ring. The flowing gap of resin should be at least 3.2 mm.

Nozzle: The tip opening should be at least 4.5 mm (diameter); if the weight of the finished product is over 5.5 kg, the diameter of the nozzle should be 9.5 mm or above. Besides, the tip opening should be less than 0.5–1 mm smaller than the gate diameter, and the segment road is shorter, which is better; it’s about 5 mm.

The key point on molding conditions for PC injection molding:

Melt temperature and mold temperature:

The best molding temperature setting is related to many factors, such as size presses, screw configuration, the mold and the molded article in the design, the molding cycle time, etc. In general, to make plastic gradually melt, you should set a lower temperature in the rear section of the feed tube or feeding area. And set a higher temperature in front of the feed tube. However, if the screw is designed defectively or the L/DD value is too small, you can also set the reverse temperature.

For the mold temperature, the high mold temperature may provide a better surface appearance, and the residual stress will be smaller. For the thinner or longer-finished PC plastic injection molding products, it’s easy to fill. However, low mold temperatures can shorten the molding cycle.

The speed of rotation of the screw is suggested at 40 to 70 rpm, but it’s subject to the design of the machine and screw.

Injection pressure: to fill the mold as soon as possible, the injection pressure should be bigger, which is better. Generally, it’s about 850 to 1,400 KG/CM2, up to 2,400 KG/CM2.

Packing: Generally, the lower, the better. For the sake of uniformity in feeding, it is suggested to use 3 to 14 KG/CM2.

The speed of injection molding: firing rate has a great relation with gate design; when using a direct gate or edge gate, in order to avoid the day sunshine phenomenon and the phenomenon of wave and current marks, you should use the slow firing rate. What’s more, if the thickness of finished products is above 5 mm, you can use slow injection to avoid air bubbles or recesses.

In general, the principle of firing rate is faster for the thin and slower for the thick. From injection to holding pressure, holding pressure is as low as possible to avoid molding products appearing to have residual stress. However, you can use the annealing method to remove or alleviate the residual stress. The condition is 120 to 130 degrees Celsius for approximately half to one hour.

Feed cylinder’s cleaning

1. Under the molding temperature of polycarbonate, add cleaning materials (general-purpose polystyrene or transparent benzene) and continuously inject for 20 to 30 times.
2. Put the machine back and continue the cleaning material by air injection until the injected cleaning materials begin to swell and blister.
3. Reset the temperature of the feed cylinder to 200 to 230 degrees Celsius.
4. Continue cleaning the material by air injection until the melt temperature of the cleaning material reaches 260 °C and the feed cylinder looks very clean and transparent on the surface.

Silicone Injection Molding

Method of Liquid Silicone Rubber Molding

When we talk about Silicone Rubber in liquid form (LSR), it is a network which is divided into two parts. In this network long chains of poly siloxane are supported with silica. Part A contains a platinum catalyst and Part B contains methyl hydrogen siloxane as a cross-linker and an alcohol inhibitor. Silicone rubbers are couple of part polymers, and may contain fillers to upgrade properties or reduce cost. Silicone rubber is for the most part non-reactive, stable, and impervious to extreme conditions and temperatures from −55 to 300 °C (−70 to 570 °F) while at the same time sustaining its properties.

Definition

when we define silicone rubber in liquid form it is a polymer which is inorganic in nature framed by silicon (Si), oxygen (O), carbon (C) and hydrogen (H). The vitally synthetic chain called the spine, is framed by silicon and oxygen, called siloxane. This is a high-virtue platinum-cured silicone with brilliant smoothness. It is frequently infused into a silicone shape cavity to manufacture various parts with high accuracy. In general, liquid silicone rubber has a low compression set, good stability, and resistance to extreme heat and cold temperatures. This material is mainly used to create seals, sealing membranes, electric connectors, multi-pin connectors, infant products where smooth surfaces are required.

The inorganic nature of LSR makes it ideal for medical and skin-contact applications. LSR has ability to combine with other chemical groups which allow it to achieve robust performances. LSR outperforms many other elastomers and is used in pushbuttons or keyboard applications, and is preferred for pumping applications, particularly if in contact with bodily fluids or chemical substances.

Injection Molding of Liquid Silicone Rubber

This is a very mechanized process. Liquid silicone injection molding uses a mechanical mixing method that blends a two-component platinum-cured LSR material compound together that flows into a mold. However, because of viscous nature of LSR, it processes easily and is perfectly suited for high-volume production, consistent part quality, and improved productivity. The LSR injection tool is housed in an LSR specific injection molding press, which is specially designed for precise control of the shot size and enables the consistent production of liquid silicone rubber components. Due to its properties and processability, liquid silicone rubber has become the ideal material for intricate design features, and demanding critical applications.

LSR Injection Molding Process

This process is thermoset in nature utilized to manufacture flexible, durable, and heat-resistant silicone parts and products. In this process two compounds are mixed which are generally consist of the base-forming silicone and the platinum catalyst. After that the mixture is injected and heat-cured inside a mold creating flexible silicone parts. However, these two compounds require intensive distributive mixing while keeping them at a low temperature before pushing it into a heated cavity. The liquid silicone rubber is cured through heat, producing solid parts or products.

This process is widely employed in various industries which include automotive, medical, consumer goods, and electronics industries. The LSR injection molding process mainly consists of the following major steps.

1.Material Preparation

LSR Compounds: LSR is a two-part compound typically referred to as base-forming material and catalyst which is generally platinum based. These parts are mixed in a 1:1 ratio and may include additional components such as pigments or additives.

Storage and Handling: LSR components are stored in containers or cartridges. One container holds the base-forming material and another container houses the catalyst, typically platinum based. Proper handling is very crucial to prevent the contamination and to ensure consistent material properties.

2. Mixing and Metering

Mixing Unit: A specialized mixing unit accurately combines both compounds. This unit may also incorporate pigments or other additives as required.

Static Mixer: The mixed LSR then passes through a static mixer, ensuring thorough homogenization of the components. This step is vital to ensure the consistent curing and properties of the final product.

Metering: In this important step the mixed LSR is metered into the injection unit. Precise metering is essential to maintain consistent shot sizes and to reduce material waste.

3. Injection Molding Machine

  • Injection Unit: The injection unit is specifically designed for LSR injection. LSR has a low viscosity and requires special screw designs. In this step material is pushed inside the mold cavity.
  • Clamping Unit: In this step clamp is used to hold the mold and to keep it close when injection is carried out. Nonetheless, the power required relies upon the part’s size and intricacy.

4. Mold Design

  • Material Considerations: Molds for LSR should be intended to endure the high temperatures and tensions applied during the curing system. They are most of the time produced using excellent quality steel or aluminum.
  • Cavity and Core: The Silicone Injection Mold comprises of cavities which are negative part shapes and cores which are positive part shapes. These should be precisely machined to accomplish the ideal part aspects and surface finishing.
  • Venting: The air is trapped and need to be released to avoid defects such as air bubbles or voids in the final product. So, it is important to ensure proper venting.
  • Ejector System: This step involves removal of the part from the mold which is cured. The ejection system must be carefully designed to handle the flexible and sticky LSR parts.

5. Injection and Curing

  • Injection Process: The mold is firmly closed and clamped with the appropriate force. The LSR is then injected into the mold cavities at high speed. Subsequently mold is filled and after that excessive material is removed.
  • Curing Process: The temperature is kept high (ordinarily between 160-200°C) to begin curing process. The curing time depends upon the part’s thickness and shape. It as a rule goes from a couple of seconds to a many minutes.

6. Demolding

  • Cooling: When curing is completed, the mold is chilled off to work with part expulsion and to avoid deformation.
  • Opening: After that mold is opened gently to prevent the damaging to the delicate LSR parts.
  • Ejection: In this step the parts are ejected from the mold using the ejector system. Careful handling is necessary to deal with the parts gently, as they are still warm and may be slightly pliable.

7. Post-Processing

  • Inspection: Dring this stage each part is inspected for defects such as flash, air bubbles, or incomplete filling. Both automated or manual inspection methods can be used.
  • Trimming: After that excess material, known as flash, is trimmed from the parts. This can be done manually or by using automated equipment.
  • Secondary Operations: additional processes like bonding, assembly, or surface treatment may be performed depending on the application and requirement.

8. Quality Control

  • Testing: In order to guarantee that delivered parts meet the necessary specifications they go through different tests. These tests incorporate mechanical property testing, dimensional checks, and visual examinations.
  • Documentation: Detailed records of the molding process, material batches, and quality control results are maintained regularly for traceability and for compliance with industry standards.

9. Packaging and Shipping

  • Packaging: Completed parts are then carefully packaged to safeguard them during transportation. Packaging techniques changes in light of the part’s size, shape, and sensitivity.
  • Shipping: Packaged parts are then shipped to customers or to the further processing facilities, ensuring timely delivery and maintaining part integrity.

First, be sure to choose toys that are appropriate for the age and interests of the child you are buying for. It is also important to pay attention to any safety warnings or age recommendations that come with the toy.

In addition to these considerations, you may also want to think about the environmental impact of the toys you are purchasing. While plastic injection molded toys are durable and long-lasting, they can still end up in landfills if they are not properly disposed of. To help reduce waste and protect the environment, consider purchasing toys that are made from recycled materials or that can be easily recycled once they are no longer being used.

Important cost for injection molding toys.

Before making injection-molded toys, you need to have toy molds according to your custom toy design; this is the initial mold cost for your toy project. The plastic toy mold is made of metal and is divided into two parts: the moving half, known as the “cavity side,” and the fixed half, the “core side.”

The cost of injection molding toy molds depends on the toys size and design complexity and the number of toys you plan to make in one injection mold. The basic cost for injection molding toys will be around $500 to $10,000, or even more. You can go to the How Much Does an Injection Mold Cost page to know more about the cost of injection molds.

Once the toy mold is completely finished, fasten the toy mold into an injection molding machine, which we call the molding process, which heats plastic pellets in a hopper until they melt. The molten plastic is then pumped into the toy mold under high injection pressure, and as the plastic cools and hardens inside the mold cavity and core, it becomes the shape of the toy. After the plastic has cooled and become solid, the mold is opened and the toy is extracted.

This is a basic plastic molding procedure for toys that may be done several times to create multiple identical toys. Below is basic injection molding, in which the same process is used to produce the injection molding toys.

Basics of plastic injection molding procee for molding toys

The basics of plastic injection molding involve melting the chosen thermoplastic down to a liquid state within a hopper, then injecting it into a mold until it is dry and is able to be popped out and sent on down the assembly line for painting, staining, or further assembly if it is a toy with numerous parts. It is also possible to insert numerous colors of plastic into the same mold so that no additional coloring process is necessary afterward, a tricky and impressive process that saves both time and money. Santa is a big fan of efficiency; particularly considering he delivers toys all in one night.

Not only are classic plastic toys produced by plastic injection molding processes but gifts that Santa would bring for teenagers and adults can also be partly produced by various injection molding processes.

Moreover, the terms of the payment method are another factor to consider before you pick the manufacturer. You need to consider manufacturers whose terms and methods of payment are available and transparent to you.

After getting the price quotation, you need to ask the toy mold/molding manufacturer to send you samples of the work they have done before. Here, you will be trying to identify the one with unique and quality products. Quality is a key consideration, as you need a toy product that will last for a long time. Being unique is also a factor in avoiding monotony and commonness.

Finally, you need to know the minimum order quantity of manufacture so as to identify if the plastic toy manufacturer is within the boundaries of your order. Some manufacturers’s minimum order quantity is way too high for you to meet it. This is the easiest and most convenient way.

Find a professional plastic molding toy source agent.

Another way to find a plastic molding toys mold manufacturer is by finding a professional source agent. The agents mostly have information on suggestions based on years of experience according to your specifications and requirements.

What the agents do is act as an intermediary between you and the manufacturer. You give them your quotation and the specific requirements you need, and they will recommend you manufacture from their wide source of information and experience.

The agents do all the work for you by sourcing the injection molding toys manufacturers for you and linking you to the manufacturers. After the professional agent sources the manufacturer, they will advise you on the best way to make payment and get your products delivered to you within the specified period.

The only problem with this is that there will be an additional fee for the professional source agent. Again, they can recommend a manufacturer who will not deliver quality work, as they act as brokers between you and the manufacturer. This is a way to find manufacturers by those who are busy and committed to finding them by themselves. I assume everyone would rather deal with the business directly with the plastic molding toys company to save cost, but this is still an idea.

What is Plastic Packaging Containers

Plastic packaging containers are containers that are used to hold something; whether that be food, clothing, or anything else; that are made out of plastic. Many companies use different plastic packaging containers, such as pharmaceutical companies. the food industry, the healthcare industry, the pet industry, and many others.

Plastic packaging containers can be found at most stores you shop at, but what about custom plastic packaging containers? Where would you find an odd-shaped container that you need for a specific project? What if you need 1000 of that same odd-shaped container for your business? Do you want your company logo on those containers? There are many aspects to look at when choosing containers, depending on what you are looking for. For example, if you are looking for clear plastic packaging containers for food, you wouldn’t want containers that contain BPA. go to custom plastic food storage containers pageto know more information.
plastic packaging container mold

Step to order your own Plastic Packaging Containers

The first step in ordering your custom plastic packaging containers would be to determine the size and shape of the container that you need. If you need a smaller container, or a basic plastic mold then you are looking at spending less money. Whereas if you are wanting a plastic packaging container in an odd shape, you will be spending a little more.
Next, you would determine what quality of plastic you need the containers to be. You would need to look at different aspects for this, such as what products are going in the containers, how the custom plastic packaging containers are going to be stored, and what climate the containers will be stored in. This is an important step because you don’t want to order a container that is not going to fit your specific needs.
After you have determined the size, shape, and quality of your plastic packaging container, you will need to decide what you want the product to look like. This means deciding whether you want custom colors or extra design. Then, you will need to determine how many containers you need. If you need the containers for a wedding, for example, you wouldn’t need as many as you would for a business that needs containers for a product. all of those process we called part design and delvelopment.
In addition, you would determine how quickly you need the product. If you need a custom product as soon as possible, you would want to look at companies with in house engineers, that are located in your country. However, if you can wait some time, you could be saving money if you went for a larger manufacture overseas, like finf a plastic molding company to handle your custom plastic mold and massive products production.
Furthermore, you will need to decide whether you need a label on the containers. This is a pretty simple step, but if it’s missed, you could end up with thousands of containers that were ordered incorrectly.
Finally, you would choose the business that you want to order from, let them know your vision, and wait for your arrival. Choosing a business can be a difficult decision, and can be time consuming because you don’t want to make a mistake when mass producing something important. As long as you follow these steps, you are headed in the right direction to getting the custom plastic packaging containers you need.

Carbon fiber molding

Carbon fiber Molding parts for High-quality Products

Carbon fibers are fibers made of carbon with the fibers being the base. Carbon fiber is materials consisting of thin filaments of carbon atoms by which when bound together with plastic polymer resin by heat or pressure, a vacuum of composite material is formed that is lightweight and at the same time durable. Carbon fiber is the combination of an estimated 50% carbon fibers, and 50% plastic, thus making it mainly a stronger plastic. Plastic by nature can break or crack easily, but when combined with the carbon fibers, its strength is increased.

The carbon fiber molding has its strength in the weave by which the more complex they are; the more durable the composite will be. This makes carbon fibers somewhat more expensive in weight when compared to fiberglass. Understanding the essential parts of carbon fiber, which are plastic and carbon fibers, one can agree that the essential concept of it is the compression. Products made with carbon fibers are compressed for the plastic to be evenly distributed throughout the fabric, leaving no room for cracks. Compression further makes it even in size and density.Carbon fiber molding

Carbon fibers are by nature as rigid as steel and even as strong as steel. This makes carbon fibers chemically resistant and can tolerate high-temperatures with low thermal expansion. What makes the composite material unique is its vast importance in diverse fields like in aerospace, sports equipment, fishing rods, baseball bats, shoe soles, bicycle frames, case of laptops, even in some instruments of music, etc. It should not come as a shock that carbon fibers are also found in satellites, the oil and gas industry, furniture, bridges, wind turbine blades, etc.

However, the carbon fiber molding has its detractions as it is said to be costly in production. Carbon fiber molding parts, due to the cost of output, is not quickly produced in mass. The nature of the carbon fiber makes its production limited in some products, and this has caused the growth of synthetics that are similar to the carbon fiber. These copycats of the carbon fiber are simply plastics that imitates the carbon fiber molding, or just a few portions of carbon fiber is in them.

PRODUCTION PROCESS
Also called the Graphite Fiber or Carbon Graphite, the carbon fiber is made from organic polymers which are long strings of molecules which are held by carbon atoms. Furthermore, most carbons are made from polyacrylonitrile process, otherwise called the PAN process. While just a small percentage (10%) are manufactured from rayon or petroleum pitch process.

The use of liquids and gases and specific materials are essential in the manufacturing process of particular qualities, grades, and also effects of carbon fiber. Depending on the raw materials being used by manufacturers, there exists a difference in the combinations of raw materials being used and thus, they treat their formulas as trade secrets.

In the manufacturing stage of the carbon fiber molding, the precursors, which are the raw materials, are stretched into long fibers which are woven into fabrics or fused with other elements or molded into the shapes or sizes the manufacturer desires. In the manufacturing of carbon fibers through the polyacrylonitrile (PAN) process, there are five segments, which are:

a. The Spinning Phase: the polyacrylonitrile is mixed with other ingredients and then spun into fibers which are further washed and stretched.

b. The Stabilizing Phase: in this phase, there is chemical alteration used to stabilize bonding.

c. The Carbonizing Phase: after stabilizing bonds, the fibers are heated to the high temperature that forms tightly bonded carbon crystals.

d. Surface Treatment: the surface of the fibers are oxidized to improve the bonding properties.

e. Desired Sizing: the fibers are then coated and wound onto bobbins or cylindrical bars, which are further loaded onto spinning machinery that twists the fibers into different sizes. However, rather than being woven to fabrics, fibers are created into composites, which requires pressure, heat, or a vacuum that binds the fibers together with a plastic polymer.

In conclusion, looking at the benefits of the carbon fiber molding parts, there are projections which see the expanding reach of carbon fiber to about $31billion by 2024. Though, there is clamor on the cost reduction and innovative applications of the material.
SINCERE TECH has introduced the Carbon fiber Molding technology this year, made around 30 Carbon Fiber Molds for the car companies. If you are looking for Carbon fiber Molds or Moldings, you are welcome to send us your requirement for quotation, we would happy to support you.

Cooling channels for injection molding

What is injection mold cooling

Injection mold Cooling is a critical aspect of the injection molding process, as it directly influences the quality and efficiency of the produced plastic parts. Proper cooling helps in achieving uniform and consistent part quality, reducing cycle times, and improving overall production efficiency. Here are key considerations and methods for injection mold cooling:

Considerations for Injection Mold Cooling:

  1. Uniform Cooling:
    • Achieving uniform cooling throughout the mold is crucial to prevent warpage and ensure consistent part quality.
    • Uneven cooling can lead to variations in part dimensions and surface finish.
  2. Cycle Time Optimization:
    • Efficient cooling can help reduce cycle times, improving overall production output.
    • Rapid and uniform cooling is essential for quick and effective part ejection.
  3. Material Selection:
    • The choice of mold material can impact the heat transfer and cooling process. High thermal conductivity materials, such as beryllium copper, can enhance cooling efficiency.
  4. Coolant Type:
    • Common coolants include water and oil. Water is widely used due to its excellent heat transfer properties, but its use is limited by the temperature range it can handle. Oil-based cooling systems may be used for higher temperature applications.
  5. Cooling Channel Design:
    • The design of cooling channels within the mold is critical. Channels should be strategically placed to ensure even cooling across the entire mold surface.
    • Conformal cooling, where channels follow the contour of the mold, can enhance heat transfer and improve uniform cooling.
  6. Baffle Design:
    • Baffles or inserts within the mold can direct the flow of coolant to specific areas, optimizing cooling efficiency.
  7. Temperature Control:
    • Implementing temperature control units allows precise regulation of coolant temperature, ensuring consistent mold temperatures during production.

Methods for Injection Mold Cooling:

  1. Conventional Cooling:
    • Using drilled cooling channels within the mold to circulate coolant (usually water) to absorb heat from the mold.
  2. Baffle Cooling:
    • Introducing baffles or inserts in the mold to control the flow of coolant and direct it to specific areas that need more cooling.
  3. Heat Pipes:
    • Utilizing heat pipes to transfer heat away from critical areas, improving cooling efficiency.
  4. Conformal Cooling:
    • Designing cooling channels that follow the contours of the mold surface for more effective heat transfer.
  5. Mist Cooling:
    • Using a mist of coolant sprayed directly onto the mold surface to enhance cooling.
  6. Cold Slug Well:
    • Implementing a cold slug well to trap and solidify the initial molten plastic in the runner system, preventing it from reaching the mold cavity and causing localized overheating.
  7. Thermal Pins:
    • Embedding thermal pins in the mold to enhance heat transfer and control temperature in specific areas.

Effective cooling strategies depend on the specific requirements of the injection molding process and the properties of the plastic material being used. It’s essential to consider these factors during the mold design process to achieve optimal cooling performance and ensure high-quality plastic parts.

Injection Mold cooling accounts for more than two-thirds of the total cycle time

Importance of injection mold cooling system design

Mold cooling accounts for more than two-thirds of the total cycle time in the production of injection molded thermoplastic parts. Figure 1 illustrates this point. An efficient cooling circuit design reduces the cooling time, which, in turn, increases overall productivity. Moreover, uniform cooling improves part quality by reducing residual stresses and maintaining dimensional accuracy and stability (see Figure 1).

Proper and efficient cooling improves part quality and productivity

Mold cooling system components

An Injection mold cooling system typically consists of the following items:
– Temperature controlling unit
– Pump
– Supply manifold
– Hoses
– Cooling channels in the mold
– Collection manifold

Mold Max/beryllium copper which we used in mold inserts for some deep area which cannot be able to add a good cooling channel or not easy to get cooling done. when a part design has deep ribs or many ribs, then MOLDMAX for mold inserts will be better option to solve this issue, this material can get better cooling, but another question is the price, as you know Moldmax is very expensive, it is more expensive than copper, and it is hard to do the manufacturing jobs, it is so hard to do the EDM jobs and polishing jobs.

Another question about this Mold max material for mold inserts is safety to the mold lifetime? I have explained my experience on another post, which I was made 48 cavities plastic molds, all of 48 core inserts made by Beryllium copper, and each insert have around 8 small bosses, it is around 6mm high, after the second mold trial some of the small boss got broken, I remember we have tested the mold around 4-5 times, and every trial got one or two inserts got broken issue, for that mold we made around 8 extra inserts for our customer to prevent this issue, but finally we all know this cost is very high for both customer and us.

Below are some suggestion from some people who provided their experience about Mold max

Shane diet says

Mold Max is not safe at all. I think it gives you a lot more problems. For health, we need to be careful in all ways.

3Pressa says

I have worked with Injection Molding, and can say most plastic is safe as long as you have safety plans, safety equipment in your working space. If science says it is not safe, then it is not safe until they are proof.

4MieleAtlanta says

If science says something is not safe, it means there is proof it isn’t safe. However, as the most interesting man in the world says, ‘safety third’

5JanA says

Too much of anything isn’t safe. So whether beryllium copper is safe or not, which I doubt knowing that copper isn’t safe for the body, I’d rather have myself protected first.

6Zvi says

Yes, you are right in wearing a protective mask while working. Excess of anything is not good and that too for a prolonged period of time, I just can’t be sure. As of for me, I will always prefer taking protection for me whether it is safe or not. We all have just one life, anything in this world is not worth to risk it for.

7Sam says

I’ve heard of a lot of problems so proper protection is a much, better safe than sorry. I plan to research the topic more since I’ve heard mixed things which is a little strange.

15Happili says

You’re right, it’s always better to be safe than sorry. Sure wearing a mask is inconvenient, but the dust definitely cannot be good for you. Who knows what undiscovered side effects could result down the road if you breathe it in too much.

16business entrepreneurship says

Mold Max isn’t safe at all the method of Mold max can be harmful as it creates air pollution as well as water pollution. I am totally against this.

17business entrepreneurship says

Yes, You are right!! it is not safe. Even all Plastic Molding process creates environmental pollution.
