Principles of injection mold design
To produce a set of high-quality injection molds, not only good mold processing equipment and skilled mold manufacturing workers, but another very important factor is to have a good mold design, especially for complex molds, mold design. Excellent mold design is: under the premise of meeting customer requirements, the processing cost is low, the processing difficulty is small, and the processing time is short.
For this reason, HEYA MOLD not only fully digest the customer's requirements, but also understand the injection molding machine, mold structure, processing technology, and the processing capabilities of the mold factory itself. Therefore, in order to improve the design level of injection molds, the following design principles should be followed:
1. Each injection molded product must first determine its mold opening direction and parting line at the beginning of the design to ensure that the core slider mechanism is minimized and the effect of the parting line on appearance is eliminated.
2. Understand every detail in each mold design, and understand the purpose of each part in the mold.
3. Proper drafting can avoid injury to the top of the product, such as white top, top deformation and top break.
4. In the design process, please refer to previous similar designs, and understand the conditions and lessons to be learned during mold processing and product production.
5. When designing injection molded products, we must consider the contradiction between product appearance, performance and process. Sometimes processes are sacrificed for good appearance or performance.
6. Learn more about the working process of injection molding machines to deepen the relationship between molds and injection molding machines.
7. The buckle is designed to be shared by multiple buckles at the same time. Therefore, due to the damage of a single buckle, the entire device will be inoperable, thereby prolonging the service life, and then tested and filtered multiple times to increase strength.
8. The factory understands the product processing process and recognizes the characteristics and limitations of each type of processing.
9. The product logo is usually placed on the flat surface of the product and uses a convex shape. The selection of the normal direction and the opening direction of the mold can be set as marks, which can avoid strain. Zhenye Injection Consulting focuses on training and training in injection molding plants.
10. Understand the test results and mold replacement of the mold you designed, and take the course.
11. Insert inserts into injection molded products to improve local strength, hardness, dimensional accuracy and small threaded holes (shafts) to meet specific needs. At the same time, it will increase product costs.
12. When designing, try to use a previously successful mold structure.
13. Setting reasonable fillets can also improve the processing of the mold. For example, the cavity can be machined directly with the tools while avoiding inefficient electrical machining.
14. Learn more about the impact of mold water on products.
15. Pillars cannot be used alone. They should be attached to the outer wall or used with ribs. The purpose is to strengthen the struts and make the rubber flow more smoothly.
16. Investigate some special mold structures and learn about the latest mold technology.
