We provide rapid plastic injection moulding tools and plastic injection
moulding parts in various industries. For a quick turnaround we can
make an aluminium mould which cuts the lead-time and cost, but does no
compromise quality. Additionally, we can use a “Master Unit
Die”. Using this method, quality moulds can be produced with a very
short lead-time at a very competitive price. Rapid injection tooling
is often used as a “bridge” between plastic prototypes and production
injection moulded parts. We pride
ourselves on our excellent communication and customer focused
mentality.
Rapid Injection moulding means that we can make a simple injection mould
at lower cost, shorter lead time compared againt the mass production
moulds without sacrifice product quality. The rapid injection mould is
commonly used to fill in the gap between the rapid prototype and mass
production parts, this is a proved better way to produce customized
plastic products at low volume, or to further evalute product design
and process capability of a new product before mass production.
Design For Manufacturing
Design For Manufacturing (DFM) is an essential part of the product
development cycle. This process is always best carried out at the
design/prototype stage, in order to keep overall product manufacturing
cost to a minimum. We will do this as a matter of course for all rapid
injection tooling inquiries.
There is no substitute for experience, and our experience has
taught us to make moulds in a metal on condition for critical
areas. Once the DFM is complete and mould layout is agreed,
including position and type of gate, ejector pins position and
parting line position are agreed, we make a mould and aim for holes
to be small and walls to be thin, so that we can finely adjust the
sizes to create parts of the correct geometry quickly. This way, we
can get first off samples to you, and on your desk in a matter of
days, often as quickly as 7-10 days if time is critical.
Surface Texture
Textures on a plastic product give a part the appearance of
sandblasting, wood, leather or others effect designed by customer. If
you require your parts to be textured, please just send us the
specification, like Mold-Tech
texture standards. We can apply textures of all kinds normally used in
plastic injection moulding. For the rapid tooling, If you do not have
specific requirement of your product appearance, we can apply direct
sandblasting with different media size on the mould, this is a quick
and cost effective way for rapid injection moulds.
Plastic Material Selection
We can produce parts in most kinds of injection mould-able plastics
including a wide selection of engineering plastics for high
performance components and also all general plastic materials. We can
also provide 2 shot parts and over moulded parts according to your
needs. In addition to plastic parts, we also provide compression
and injection moulded rubber parts in a wide rage of materials
including: EPDM, FKM, NBR, PU, Q, to name a few!
Rapid injection moulding process or moulded plastic products are
widely applied in many industries, including most of commerical
products, like home appliance industry, office accessories
industry, electrical tools, auto industries and electronic devices.
