Selecting the right material is one of the most important decisions you will make when planning your injection molded parts. The material you choose will determine the part’s strength, flexibility, temperature resistance, and cost, impacting your product’s performance and success in the market. Whether you are working with an injection molding company for a new product launch or scaling up your existing product, understanding your material options helps you make informed decisions and avoid costly mistakes. Understand Your Application Requirements The first step in choosing the right material is to analyze the requirements of your product: Mechanical Properties: Does your part need to be rigid or flexible? Should it withstand heavy loads or impacts? Thermal Properties: Will the part be exposed to high or low temperatures? Chemical Resistance: Will the part come into contact with chemicals, oils, or water? Appearance: Do you need a specific color or surface fini...
Injection molding machines are mostly used in the manufacturing of complex and high precision plastic products in industries. These machines offer a variety of advantages that makes them ideal for industrial use. Below are the major advantages these injection molding machines have over their competitors. High Production Rate The major advantage of using an injection molding machine in the industry is that they offer a high production rate and are very efficient. However, the production rate depends upon the size of the mold and the complexity of the product. The injection molding machine can produce plastic items between 15-120 pieces per cycle time. Low Production Cost The Plastic Injection Molding Machine is an automated process and thus provides more precision and fewer non-compliance products. Almost all the operations are automated and can be controlled by a single operator. The automation, fewer man-hours, high production rate, and low rejection helps in reducing the overa...
