Welcome to the detailed workflow of insert injection molding. Insert injection molding is widely used in a variety of industries, including automotive, medical, electronics, and connectors. The key feature of this process is that the insert is pre-positioned in the insert injection mold before the plastic is injected. Once the plastic cools and solidifies, the insert is tightly encapsulated within the insert injection mold, resulting in a product with embedded features such as threads and electrodes.
The advantages of insert injection molding include:
-Material Advantages: By combining the formability and elasticity of plastic with the rigidity, strength, and heat resistance of metal, complex and sophisticated metal-plastic integrated products can be created, reducing product size and weight.
-Electrical Performance: By combining the insulating properties of plastic with the electrical conductivity of metal, the resulting product can meet the basic functions of electrical products and also meet specific requirements such as magnetic conductivity, wear resistance, and fastening.
-Strength Enhancement: Adding metal inserts to plastic can significantly increase the strength of the plastic part, enhancing its overall performance.
-Design Flexibility: Insert injection molding increases product design flexibility and opens up new possibilities for combining plastic, metal, and other parts.
-Simplified Process: Insert injection molding eliminates secondary processes such as hot-melt, welding, and riveting, shortening assembly time and reducing costs.
