The mold impact of injection molding production

 

Mold because it can duplicate the production structure and shape of complex products, but also has high production efficiency, part shape, and uniform size, high precision parts, bulk and low cost, so the mold has become a manufacturing cost-efficient production of important technical support, a national mold industry level has become an important measure of the level of its manufacturing standards. Meanwhile, the main factors affecting the quality of the mold is product quality.

 

Injection mold injection product processing is the most important molding equipment, its quality is directly related to the merits of product quality. Moreover, since a large proportion of injection molding mold occupy in production costs, which is about the life of a direct injection product's cost. Therefore, improving the quality of injection molds, and maintenance and repair, extended its life cycle, are injection molding production cost reduction and efficiency an important issue. Meanwhile, the mold structure for injection molding equipment and raw material costs are also closely linked.

 

Second, the impact of injection mold production

 

Injection molds for injection molding have a huge impact mainly reflected in the following aspects

 

1. Select the injection molding machine for injection molding machines and die because of limitations related parameters, a type of injection molding machine die size allows installation there is a certain range, that is when mold making good, the corresponding minimum machine it has been determined. This ensures that companies supporting the injection molding machine, otherwise, it is possible to increase the injection molding machine models will inevitably result in the waste of the machine.

 

2. Requirements of the mold temperature requirements of the injection facilities may require mold temperature water connector specification, the number of groups waterway wire connection method

 

Requirements 3. Injection environmental impact of the product because the material, accuracy requirements, maybe required injection ambient temperature and humidity

 

4. Product quality and product quality is at least 70% of the factors in the mold, for high-precision injection molding machine, mold influence more prominent. For the appearance of the product surface, surface striae mainly to see the effect of the mold, glossy, mirror, etc. mainly to see the quality of the mold cavity surface polishing. For products of non-appearance of the surface, the mold surface quality can be directly reflected in the surface roughness of the product for the product dimensions, in addition to affecting the product shrinkage and the injection molding process, the most direct impact is mold dimensional accuracy. The higher precision Die size, dimensional accuracy is also higher. Produce many other plastic product defects, mold factor occupies a large proportion. See the narrative below.

 

5. molding cycle mold design, for gate location, etc waterway layout will affect the production of the injection molding cycle. Short molding cycle, direct injection to enhance production efficiency and capacity of injection molding machines, but also means lower production costs.

 

6. Raw Material - production costs (waste) design mold runner system will affect the injection of waste generated in a gram weight, these wastes actually increase the cost of production.

 

7. The degree of automation of production mold design, injection molding automation need to be considered to achieve, such as the top of the well, no post-processing, production of stable quality and risk-free. If the mold can not meet the requirements, it must have an operator for the production, which is bound to increase in labor costs, and increase the instability of product quality.

 

8. After processing reasonable mold design, product to meet the requirements, there is no need for post-processing, such as repair flash, cut the gate, orthopedic, all seized

Common problems in injection molding

What are the factors affecting precision injection molding?

 Precision injection molding generally refers to a process that requires high precision and surface quality of molded parts. It is also believed that precision injection molding refers to an injection molding process with a dimensional accuracy of 0.01 to 0.001 mm. In recent years, with the rapid development of electronics, medical care, communications, automobiles, and other industries, people’s requirements for high precision and high performance of plastic products are increasing day by day. Traditional plastic molding processes have been difficult to meet the current high standards. At the same time, injection molding is one of the most important plastic molding methods. Therefore, the precision injection molding technology has received more and more attention, which has made the precision injection molding technology continue to advance and new technologies continue to emerge.

Precision injection molding requires products not only to have high dimensional accuracy, low warpage deformation, excellent transfer characteristics, but also excellent optical properties, etc. Therefore, it is important for injection molding machines, injection molds, molding processes, and raw materials. Performance and formula have special requirements, and there are many factors that affect precision injection molding.

According to the current actual production, the difficulties of precision injection molding mainly include the following aspects:

(1) Plastic shrinkage rate: When designing precision plastic products, the shrinkage rate of plastics should be considered.

(2) Product shape and size: The shape and size of the plastic part have a great influence on the accuracy of the part. Production practice shows that the more complex the shape and the larger the size of the product, the lower the accuracy.

(3) Mold structure: The accuracy of injection molded parts is closely related to the number of mold cavities and production batches. It also shows that the precision of the single-cavity mold structure is higher than that of the multi-cavity mold structure, and the precision of small batch production is higher than that of large batches.

(4) Mold processing accuracy: Since the injection molded product must be molded in the mold cavity, the accuracy of the product will never exceed the accuracy of the mold cavity. Under normal circumstances, the accuracy of injection molded products is one to two tolerance levels lower than the accuracy of the mold. As far as the current mold manufacturing technology is concerned, most of the mold cavities are manufactured by high-speed milling, grinding, polishing, or electrical machining, etc. These processing methods can achieve the highest precision required.

(5) Injection molding machine: Because precision injection molding has higher precision requirements for products. Therefore, they generally need to be carried out on a special precision injection molding machine. The injection power of the precision injection molding machine must be large, the control accuracy must be high, the response speed of the hydraulic system must be fast, and the mold clamping system must have sufficient rigidity.

Selection of precision injection molding plastics The shrinkage rate of plastic products fluctuates greatly during molding. In addition, due to the different types of polymers and additives used in different plastics, their flow performance and molding performance during injection molding will be different. There are big differences. Due to factors such as the manufacturer, the factory season, and environmental conditions, there are also problems with the stability of the shape and size of the products molded by them.

Therefore, in addition to having good flow properties and molding properties, precision injection molded plastics also require shape and dimensional stability. Otherwise, the accuracy of the product is difficult to guarantee. Therefore, when injection molding precision plastic products, we must consider the variety of plastics and their molding properties, and choose materials with low shrinkage and good long-term stability as much as possible.

Injection molding operation requirements

 

First, the quality requirements of plastic products

1. After injection molding, the product structure must be guaranteed to be complete, and there should be no shortage of materials or materials.

2. The surface of the product is bright in color, uniform in color, and full.

3. The surface of the product is not filled with defects such as flowers, impurities and black spots.

4, The shape of the product is regular, with no deformation, distortion, and obvious bubbles inside the product.

  5,The product can be matched with the relevant parts and normal, can not be separated without external force.

6. For products that need to be assembled, after assembly, the operator needs to perform a self-test to ensure that the product meets the quality requirements. Not allowed

Not installed, missing, and broken.

Second, plastic products trimming requirements

1. The feeding port of the product is generally cut off with a trimming knife, and the cutting position cannot be clearly whitish.

2. When trimming the knife, when trimming the product, the force should be repaired from the inside out when repairing the product. The direction of the force is not allowed to be blocked by the other hand.

3. When the product is trimmed, the force on the shank should be even, ensure that the force can cut off the product as much as possible, the long front of the batch, the middle does not stagnate, once repaired to the end, to ensure the finished the appearance of the edge after trimming

 4. The surface of the product that has been trimmed is not allowed to have wavy lines and unevenness.

5. For the part where the inlet is removed, the trimming should be smooth, and slight scratches caused by improper trimming in the range of φ10 are allowed. Other parts are not allowed to have scratches due to improper trimming.

6. For the height of the draping height greater than 0.2mm, it should be trimmed (unless the adjustment of the injection parameters can be solved), especially the flank on the edge of the outline of the product must be removed.

7. For different products, it is recommended to use different types of trimming knives to ensure product quality and improve trimming efficiency.

8. It is not allowed to damage other qualified surfaces due to improper trimming operation (such as causing good surface scratches, cuts, etc.).

 

Third, product stacking and handling

1. The height of the product stacked on the pallet should not exceed 1.2mm. The number of products in the same specification must be the same. Finally, it is bundled with a winding die. For small products placed in the tote, the height of the product should be 10CM at the tote, and the loading weight of the tote should not exceed 25Kg.

Three trends in the future of smart wear

 

First: Medicalization

Health is the first scenario for smart wearable devices and it will further penetrate the daily life of users in the subsequent technological development process.

 

For healthy consumers, it can play a role in monitoring, warning, and prevention.

 

Consumers with sub-healthy bodies can get a use experience that is close to normal people through smart wearable devices.

 

Of course, the above consumers may also obtain some kind of "super-sensory" and "super-human" experience through smart wearable devices.

 

Second: Fashion

With the further development of technology and the further improvement of consumers' aesthetics, the boundary between fashion and technology will be further blurred.

 

In the field of science and technology, in order to maximize value, it often deliberately creates and amplifies some kind of "sensory" experience. In addition, the fashion of technology products can eliminate the guard of users and the discrimination of onlookers; this makes technology products more and more. The more refined.

 

Although it is a major trend that technology products become fashionable, brand tonality is not so easy to eliminate, just like Xiaomi's easy entry into the smart jewelry field will only be thankless.

 

Third: Aging

For the aging of the population, a global problem that cannot be avoided in the world, an aging design that is friendly to the elderly is not only in the field of smart wear but also a reality that needs to be faced in manufacturing, design, and creativity.

 

The key to the aging design is to provide more help to the elderly without causing a

cognitive burden.

Japan announced that it will ban the sale of fuel vehicles. Is the era of new energy vehicles coming?

 

Recently, according to overseas media reports, Japan’s Ministry of Economy, Trade, and The industry have initiated adjustments in the direction of stopping sales of new gasoline vehicles in Japan in the mid-2030s. In the future, all new vehicle sales in Japan will be converted to hybrid and pure electric models.

 

The Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry is expected to announce the above guidelines after a meeting with stakeholders in the automotive industry on December 10. The meeting will discuss specific topics such as stopping the sale of new gasoline vehicles and formulating a framework for popularizing hybrid and pure electric vehicles.

 

It is reported that the Japanese government has set a goal to reduce the proportion of gasoline vehicles in new car sales to 30% to 50% within 30 years, but it has not yet stated when sales will be banned. This series of measures are all aimed at achieving the government goal of zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. This means that Tokyo’s "burn ban" target is five years earlier than entire Japan.

 

Data shows that the number of new cars (passenger cars) sold in Japan in 2019 was 4.3 million. Among them, about 60% (2.61 million vehicles) are gasoline and diesel vehicles. The remaining 30% are hybrid vehicles, while pure electric vehicles, which are more effective in global warming, are only about 0.5%. This is because in the Japanese market there are still problems related to the maintenance of pure electric vehicle charging piles that need to be solved. On the other hand, Japanese car companies such as Toyota mainly introduce hybrid models to the market as their main environmentally-friendly models. , The proportion of pure electric vehicles is relatively small.

 

Regarding the issue of the ban on the sale of fuel vehicles, not only Tokyo but the United Kingdom also plans to ban fuel vehicles in advance by 2030. Recently, the British Prime Minister publicly announced that he plans to advance the original ban on the sale of fuel vehicles by 10 years, starting from 2030. At the same time, France, Israel, Spain, and other countries have announced plans to phase out fuel vehicles between 2030 and 2040.

 

　　As the timetable for the ban on the sale of fuel vehicles in various countries around the world has been finalized one after another, major auto companies have also transformed their deployment of new energy vehicles. Volvo and Fiat have already stopped selling fuel vehicles in 2019. Leading car companies such as Honda and Volkswagen have also put plans to stop selling fuel vehicles on their agendas, and successively announced their own new energy plans.

 

It is worth mentioning that with regard to the ban on the sale of fuel vehicles, China’s Hainan Province will also stop selling fuel vehicles in 2030. Related organizations predict that China will achieve a complete withdrawal of traditional fuel vehicles before 2050, and complete the goal of banning the sale of fuel-based private cars around 2030. Although China is still far away from the launch of the "Fire Banning Timetable", according to official guidance and private research, the period for China to achieve this goal should be after 2035 and before 2050.
