Injection Molded Metal Inserts
Custom Injection Molded Metal Inserts
Metal insert molding (outserr moulding) is a method of insert modeling in which the metal insert is pre-fixed in the appropriate position in the mold, and then injected into the plastic molding. After the mold is opened, the insert is tightly wrapped by the cooled and solidified plastic and buried in the product to obtain a product with inserts such as threaded rings, electrodes, etc.
Injection Molded Metal Inserts
Mold preparation and insert placement: In the insert injection molding process, the first thing to do is to specially design and manufacture an injection mold with an insert function. There will be a fixed position for the insert in the mold to ensure that the insert does not move or fall off during the injection molding process.
Insert pretreatment: In order to ensure that the insert is firmly bonded to the plastic material, the surface of the insert usually needs to be surface treated, such as cleaning, polishing or coating with adhesive to improve its adhesion to the plastic.
After the mold and insert are prepared, the insert is placed in the designated position of the mold, the mold is closed, and then injection molding is performed. The plastic is injected into the mold by the injection molding machine under high temperature and pressure, filling the entire cavity and covering the insert. At this point, the insert and the plastic material are combined into a whole
Injection Molded Metal Inserts
Improve product strength and functionality: By embedding high-strength materials such as metal, the structural strength and durability of the product can be significantly enhanced.
Simplify post-assembly: Insert injection molding can complete the complex assembly process at one time during the injection molding process, reducing labor costs and improving production efficiency.
Multi-material combination: It can realize the effective combination of multiple materials in one product and integrate the collaborative work needs of various materials.
