From the beginning of mold design to the success of mold processing and inspection, the technical data generated during this period, such as task books, parts drawings, technical instructions, mold assembly drawings, mold parts drawings, base drawings, mold design instructions, inspection records, mold repair records, etc.

Products that have just been designed cannot usually be perfect, and may even be unusable. If there are any defects in the direct production process, they will all be scrapped, resulting in a significant waste of manpower, resources, and time.

Practice has proved that good finish machining process control can effectively reduce part out-of-tolerance and scrap, and effectively improve the one-time success rate and service life of the mold.

Injection molding entails injecting thermoplastic material into a mold cavity by melting and injecting the plastic material, cooling, and shaping it according to what was designed in the mold cavity. Once in, injection molding allows many details like bosses, ribs and threads to be formed without further processing in one step of this process.

In general, PP’s requirements for mold design cover material properties, temperature control, gate and runner design, mold structure, and many other aspects. During the mold design process, these factors need to be considered comprehensively to ensure the production of high-quality and stable PP plastic parts.
