Plastic part wall thickness design is an important part of plastic part design, and it has a significant impact on the quality, performance, and cost of plastic parts. If the wall thickness of the plastic part is too thin, it is easy to cause the plastic part to be insufficient in strength, deformed, or cracked; if the wall thickness is too thick, it will increase material consumption, prolong the production cycle, and reduce production efficiency.

Thermoplastics are a diverse group of materials, and even within the same family, the properties and processing characteristics can vary due to differences in the composition of the resin molecules and additives.

Computer-aided design (CAD) technology has a wide range of applications in mold manufacturing, which can significantly improve the efficiency and quality of mold design and manufacturing.

Improper venting in injection molds can lead to various defects and issues that can significantly impact the quality and functionality of the molded parts.

Product short shot in injection molding refers to the incomplete filling of the mold cavity with molten plastic during the molding process, resulting in incomplete or missing material in certain areas of the product.

Black spots are a common appearance defect found in injection molded parts. These are primarily caused by the decomposition of the plastic or additives like UV stabilizers and anti-static agents inside the barrel, which then get injected into the mold cavity along with the molten plastic.

Mold Flow Analysis (MFA) is a software tool that utilizes Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) techniques to simulate the flow, filling, cooling, and solidification of plastic during the injection molding process.

The design of thin-wall product molds requires considering many factors to ensure product quality and production efficiency.

TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) mold sticking is a common problem in TPE product manufacturing, affecting product quality and production efficiency.
