With the economic climate changes and global competition, mold manufacturing industry has undergone dramatic changes over the past 10 years, standardized single precision parts have replaced hand-mounted inserts and standardized basic parts universal promotion and application, more and more customers have production networks worldwide. Mold manufacturers can reasonably produce molds, assembly as soon as possible and to ensure that the parts in the world has to replace parts suppliers.
1, a high standard of engineering and technology Constantly introducing 3D-CAD design, CAD / CAM, mold machining centers to achieve industrial production. Moreover, high-speed milling (HSC) and the combination of the workpiece in the mold manufacturing has become the latest technology. These new developments have replaced a similar profile milling and EDM, and not the extent of conductive wire spark machining and other traditional crafts. HSC milling by high surface quality obtained, has made the most time-consuming polishing the surface no longer needed after the EDM. High-quality metal removal production process has replaced individually assembled mold insert and mold, replaced by a focus on assembly.
Industrial production of mold inserts, and single / multi-cavity mold of the female die has uniformity and accuracy, and promote the balanced sprue system. Hot plastic injection mold with hot runner system is the latest technology, while the elastomer injection mold with cold runner system is the latest technology.
2, the new injection molding process Die manufacturing designers and production experts imagination and ability to withstand the test. They had numerous innovations over the past decade has made in the process engineering into successful practice. Examples include how materials and multicolor injection molding, injection-containing fabric, film or painted surfaces. But the hot runner sprue system or gas injection method have been continuously applied.
The development of these mold manufacturing technology also requires from the customer (such as injection molding factory), the final work closely with users, material and equipment manufacturers. International Association Secretary-General Luo Baihui mold, mold increasing complexity (number of cavities, a combination of different processes) tends to force the mold manufacturing standardization. And 10 - as compared to the situation 15 years ago, the ordinary mold manufacturers is difficult to be competitive in today's marketplace. But ideas into products of mold design will always be the main task of mold manufacturing.
