What does the name of each link of injection mold processing mean?

The names of the various links of injection mold processing represent the different stages and processes of mold manufacturing. Here is a detailed explanation of the names of these links:

1, mold manufacturing preparation

(1) Mold design: According to product requirements and design drawings, the mold is comprehensively analyzed to determine the structure, size and material of the mold.
(2) Material preparation: Select appropriate materials, such as steel, aluminum alloy, etc., to ensure that it has sufficient strength and corrosion resistance.
(3) Equipment preparation: Prepare the required processing equipment and tools, such as milling machines, grinders, EDM machines, etc.

2, mold manufacturing

(1) Mold blank manufacturing: According to the mold design drawings, the use of appropriate materials and processing methods to produce the mold blank. The size and shape of the blank shall be in accordance with the design drawings.
(2) Mold cavity manufacturing: the blank is roughed and then finished to produce the mold cavity. The precision and finish of the cavity directly affect the quality of the injection molded product.
(3) Manufacture of other parts of the mold: according to the design drawings, manufacture other parts of the mold, such as pouring system, cooling system, ejection system, etc. The manufacturing accuracy and stability of these parts have an important impact on the performance and service life of the mold.

3, mold assembly

(1) Component assembly: Assemble the parts of the manufactured mold to form a complete mold. In the assembly process, it is necessary to pay attention to the matching accuracy and position relationship of each part to ensure the stability and reliability of the mold.
(2) trial assembly testing: After the assembly is completed, trial assembly testing is carried out to check whether the overall structure and size of the mold meet the design requirements.

4. Mold test and adjustment

(1) Trial mold production: Through the trial mold, you can check whether the design of the mold meets the production requirements, find problems and adjust and optimize. The process of mold testing is the key link to ensure the quality and performance of the mold.
(2) Adjustment and optimization: According to the test results, the mold is adjusted and optimized, including modifying the design, adjusting the processing parameters, etc., until the production requirements are met.

5. Trial production and testing

(1) Trial production testing: In the process of mold testing, the injection molding products produced are tested, including size, appearance, performance and other aspects. According to the test results, the mold is adjusted and optimized until the production requirements are met.

(2) Mass production: After trial production and testing to confirm the qualified mold, can be put into mass production. In the process of use, the injection mold designer needs to provide the necessary technical support and maintenance services to ensure the normal operation and production efficiency of the mold.

The above is the explanation of the name of each link of injection mold processing, I hope it can help you.
