The Process of Plastic Molding and Its advantages

As we are aware, molding is a process of manufacturing by which liquid or pliable new material gets a rigid shape called a mold. Plastic molding products can be seen everywhere. As plastic is a non-metallic compounds produced synthetically, it can be molded into various forms and hardened for various commercial use.


Plastic mold plays a very vital role in the mold industry. The process involves putting the material through a hot barrel where it is melted down for mixing. After being melted and mixed, the material is then sent into a mold where it is cooled and solidifies into the same shape as the mold. In the process of plastic molding, role of precision molds are very much essential. Though plastic is a versatile substance but precision molding is needed in order to get the useful shape. Without precision measurement tools, it is almost impossible to build a plastic injection mould.
      The advantages of plastic injection molding are as follows-
Ø  It allows complex and intricate shapes to manufacture
Ø  It allows for high volume products with same quality.
Ø  Lower initial cost and saves time.
Ø  This process also reduces labour costs.
Ø  Unused left over plastics can be recycled and reused.

Now a days, various specialized techniques like thermoplastic and thermo set injection molding, transferring resin, blow molding, gyratory molding, compression molding, thermo forming, structural foam molding etc are adopted for producing complex plastic components. MING-Li is such a renowned manufacturer which applies the modern technologies basing on the demand and specifications of customers. The track records of this company along with the customer service have proved as a leading plastic mold suppler in the industry.

Insert Molding and its installation process

For general awareness, mold is a hollowed out block or rigid frame. A liquid or pliable materials like plastic, glass, ceramic materials etc are filled in order to strengthen the material or adds the value added functional features. When the liquid hardens and sets inside the mold and takes the desired shape. Likewise when a preformed or machined component is inserted into the cavity while the mold is opened and then the material is injected properly this process itself is called insert moulding.
So many industries in the present market are actively involved in manufacturing and supplying insert moldings with modern technologies. MING-LI is one of the leading manufactures and supply qualitative insert molding products to the customers all over the world. It offers various types of insert molding products such as- Electronic and electrical pins, Electrical and electronic connectors, Mechanical assemblies, Life science sensors, Gears and fasteners etc.

In insert molding, there are various methods of installation of inserts. The popular two methods adopted by most of the manufacturer are-
1.   Post moulded installation
2.   Moulded-in installation.
Both the methods have their own pros and cons. So basing on the requirement most appropriate method is adopted. MING LI has a well formulated insert moulding process. The step by step is as follows-
     I.        At first step a custom built mold is prepared with inserts with the help of robotics.
   II.        In the second step, Plastic in the molten form is injected.
  III.     In the next step, the components are removed and separated from the spruces after it gets cooled.
 IV.   In the last step, some testing mechanisms are applied in order to get the quality product.

MING-Li ensures its products by a long experience and adopting new technologies. So Choose MING LI as your default supplier you will get your desired product at your door step.
