Overview

• American mold makers adhere to stringent quality control standards, ensuring that the molds produced are of superior quality and consistency. This high level of quality reduces the risk of recalls and reworks, ultimately saving time and money. PMC serves a wide range of industries that need to improve an existing product, transition a part from metal to plastic, or bring an entirely new product to market. The shift toward lean manufacturing principles in injection molding emphasizes waste reduction and efficiency. By adopting lean practices, manufacturers can streamline their processes, enhance productivity, and improve overall product quality. The injection unit of the machine controls the flow of molten plastic into the mold cavity. Properly calibrated injection speed, pressure, and temperature ensure that the cavity fills completely and uniformly without creating internal stresses.

  
  

  How Tooling Is Made For Injection Molding

  
  

  Mold temperature control is critical during injection molding; improper settings can affect the appearance and strength of the plastic parts. The rise of additive manufacturing is influencing traditional injection molding processes. By integrating 3D printing for rapid prototyping, manufacturers can streamline their product development cycles and enhance overall efficiency in mold creation. Have you ever had an injection molded part that didn’t live
  up to its’ use in the environment for which it was intended?  After several attempts to correct the
  problems did you give up and choose a metal instead?  Many plastic mold design projects have landed with us because others were not able to manufacture a product the way the customer had intended.

  
  

  What Is Tonnage In Injection Molding

  
  

  As experienced plastic molders, our highly knowledgeable team understands the critical plastic injection molded part design considerations to create high quality plastic parts. Our plastic mold design consultations have renewed multiple projects after our engineers diagnosed and provided solutions for correction of improper mold design. The use of fillers, such as glass fibers or mineral reinforcements, in plastics can enhance the strength, stiffness, and thermal properties of injection-molded parts. In addition, glass fill percentages can range quite a bit (typically 13% to 45%), which will affect the final part’s properties accordingly.Uniform Wall ThicknessNo Sharp, 90-degree AnglesFew Through Holes & TurnsNon-complex GeometriesGate Location at the Long Axis of the Part   Mold temperature controllers maintain the optimal temperature for molding specific plastics, ensuring proper part crystallization and solidification. PMC is well known in the industry for being able to troubleshoot and solve complex molding issues. We offer a comprehensive range of plastic molding services including mold design assistance, modeling, prototyping, manufacturing, and testing.
