A draft angle is the angle applied to the vertical wall of an injection molded parts to assist with releasing the part from the mold.

PEEK injection molding is a process of creating parts from PEEK (polyether ether ketone), a high-performance thermoplastic. PEEK is known for its strength, stiffness, chemical resistance, and biocompatibility, making it ideal for a wide range of applications, including medical devices, aerospace components, and industrial equipment.

A plastic injection molding machine is a manufacturing machine designed to turn plastic polymers and resins into plastic parts and products. The injection molding process will essentially heat plastic material to its melting point, and the injection unit will force it into a created mold. Once in the mold, the part or product will harden as it cools, and the solid product will be ejected.

In injection molding, sharp corners can cause a number of problems, including reduced strength, increased old complexity, increased manufacturing time, reduced surface finish.

How to set the ejector pin?

After reviewing that the product design provide by the customer conforms to the molding manufacturing, the steps of mold design are as follows:

The production cycle of an injection mold project is generally 40 days, and the communication between the supplier and the customers in the beginning directly determines the progress of the project. The following are some details of the mold project. If this data is fully provided, it will save lots of time on information exchange.

To make the die-casting product more adaptive, there are plenty of surface treatments, so how many do you know?

Some preparation before injection molding

Engineering drawings are essential for mold manufacturing and injection molding that provides a detailed information of products and molds. What information should be included in an engineering drawing?
