Materials used for making bottle caps
Bottle caps are mostly made of plastics. They may also be made of metal. The material for the manufacture of bottle caps is chosen based on its usage and type of bottle/container. The properties like strength, flexibility, durability, inertness to liquid compositions and moisture resistance are considered carefully before being chosen for an application.

 

Plastics
The plastic caps are usually made of Polyethylene Terephthalate, Polypropylene, Low-Density Polyethylene, High-Density Polyethylene, Polyvinyl Chloride, Polystyrene and Polycarbonate.
Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) is non-toxic, light in weight, strong and durable, environmentally friendly and recyclable. It is used in plastic bottles that package carbonated beverages, mineral water, dairy beverages, juices, edible oil, etc.

 

Metals
The metal caps are usually made of steel and aluminum. They have a wide range of temperature tolerance and are resistant to fracture from impact. The steel caps are usually coated with an anti-corrosive coating of chrome plate or tin plate. Other materials like plastisol, pulp/aluminum Foil, or solid PE (polyethylene) are also used.

 

Liners
These coatings applied on the caps are referred to as liners. The liners are chosen based on the product's nature and may specifically be used for moisture barrier, chemical resistance, safety, or prevention of leakage. The different types of liners are 3-ply foam, polyethylene foam, pressure-sensitive foam liner, induction liner, polyvinyl, poly seal, Teflon PTFE, foil and plastisol.
3-Ply foam liner is made of compressible polyethylene foam with a layer of polyethylene film. They have excellent sealing characteristics, good chemical resistance, good taste and odour resistance and low water vapour transmission rate.

The Structure and Classification of Plastic Top Cap Mould for Bottle

 

 

The structure and classification of the plastic anti-theft bottle caps for beverage bottles Although the volume is not large, the structure is relatively complicated. There are many stricter indicators, such as sealing performance, drop performance, heat resistance, opening torque and breaking cap performance, etc., to produce qualified cap products, there are high requirements for the accuracy of the mold.

 

There is a ring of sealing ring and internal thread in the cover, and there is a ring of bosses on the inside and outside of the lower anti-theft ring, with a diameter of about 2. The 18 thin connecting bridges of mm are connected to the bottle cap 7. Once the bottle cap is opened, the connecting bridge will be broken. Typical injection mold structure of plastic anti-theft bottle caps Plastic anti-theft bottle caps for beverage bottles were produced by injection molding technology earlier.

 

After years of development, a special injection molding machine for bottle caps and a supporting conveying and testing unit have now been formed. Most of the molds adopt the form of hot runner system and one mold with multiple cavities. 32 cavities, 48 ​​cavities, 64 cavities, and 72 cavities are the current mainstream mold cavities in foreign countries. Bottle caps are thin-walled injection molding. Although the volume is not large, the structure is more complicated. , The structure of thread and anti-theft ring, plus the thin connection bridge between the bottle cap body and the anti-theft ring, makes demolding become a major difficulty in the injection mold of the bottle cap.

 

How to Maintain Plastic Top Cap Mould For Bottle
 
 

Use the right material for the mold for the best cycle performance. Different mold materials will give you different cycle performances. Because the mold will work only for certain production cycles, you should pick the mold material that can handle the production goal for the bottle cap you would like to make.

 
 

Consider your injection molding cost and production goal. For instance, steel mold is better than aluminum mold, but the steel material will be much more expensive if you use it in the tooling process. However, it will likely meet your production goal much better when compared to the aluminum mold.

 
 

To save time and money in the tooling process, think about the reusability of the mold for the plastic caps. If this is just a once-and-done project, you can use a cheaper mold with a shorter life cycle, such as by using a cheaper mold material, to get this project done. But, if it will be a continuous production project, using a more expensive mold will be beneficial for the long term.

 
 

Is it necessary to add more details and complexities to your cap design? The more intricate your mold design, the longer it will be for you to complete the tooling process for the plastic cap. It's best to think through whether you will need some additional design intricacies so that you can save some time and money in the tooling process.

 
 

Now that everything is ready, including your tooling and materials, it's time for you to start producing the plastic bottle caps. Of course, before doing that, you will need to configure the injection molding machine first based on your requirements. The most important thing to configure is the tonnage required for your mold, which needs to match the machine's tonnage specifications.
