Ultrasonic Welding
Ultrasonic welding is a joining process that uses high-frequency mechanical vibrations to join two or more pieces of materials together. This process is commonly used in manufacturing to join plastics and plastic, as well as other materials. Ultrasonic welding has severa...Read more -
What is the relationship between plastic injection mold and shrinkage rate?
The relationship between plastic injection mold and shrinkage rate is complex and influenced by several factors, including: 1.Material type: Different plastics have different shrinkage rates, which can range from 0.5% to 2% which have a significant impact on the dimensional accuracy and quality o...Read more -
Why the plastic injected part is warpage deformation?
Warpage deformation refers to the distortion of the shape of the injection moulded product and warpage, deviating from the shape accuracy requirements of the part, it is one of the defects to solve in injection mould design and production. ...Read more -

TPE Overmolding
1.What is Overmolding Overmolding is a injection molding process where one material is molded into a second material. Here we mainly talk about TPE overmolding. TPE is called thermoplastic Elastomer, it is a functional material with both rubber elasticity and plastic sti...Read more -
Why the plastic part is not fully injected?
In the injection molding, the short shot injection, also called underfill , refers to the injection plastic flow end of the phenomenon of partial incompleteness or a part of a mold cavity is not filled, especially the thin-walled area or the end of the flow path area. The performance of the melt...Read more -
Wall thickness design of injection molding plastic parts
In the design of plastic parts, the wall thickness of the part is the first parameter to be considered, the wall thickness of the part determines the mechanical properties of the part, the appearance of the part, the inject ability of the part and the cost of the part. I...Read more -
