The next level of molding!
Our patented mold optimizes steel temperature control by fast thermal water cycling,
bypassing molded-in stress and redefining part quality at lower cycles.
Appearance
Improved texture detail
Reduce significantly (and most times eliminate) sinks, warpage, flow lines and knit lines
Elimination of painting or secondary finishing for flow lines/knit lines
Physical Properties
Reduces/eliminates molded-in stress
Improves strength by a 4 to 7 multiple
Increases part strength for a given cross section
Increase in strength enables part weight reduction
20%-30% glass filled material buries the glass for cosmetics
Part Design
Greater freedom and flexibility of the part design, allowing structural components that would normally create appearance or processing problems
Greatly reduces parts breakage, although lighter yet stiffer and stronger parts
Minimizes part draft requirements
Increased flow distance allowing for greater flexibility of the number of gates and their locations
Benefits
Material savings of 10%-15% due to wall thickness reduction
Current injection mold steels are used in mold construction
Current injection molding material is used
Cycle reduction time of 20% - 30%
Elimination of painting cost (exception is metallic’s) for cosmetics
Although no modification of presses required, can reduce injection pressure and press clamping pressure up to 30%
Follow up service includes quoting, placing, following engineering changes
Molds created for this process can be run conventionally without modification
This process used with functional parts will achieve strength or weight reduction
