About Plastic Mold Equipment Design and Fabrication
Plastic mold equipment design and plastic mold equipment fabrication services specialize in the design and fabrication of machinery used to create plastic molds, barrels or cylinders, liners, hot runner systems and component, and feeders. They produce machines for processes such as injection molding, blow molding, rotational molding, thermoforming, compression molding, and resin transfer molding (RTM). Injection molding machines have two basic parts: the injection unit and the clamping unit. The injection unit melts the plastic and then moves it into the mold. The clamping unit holds the mold in the closed position during injection, opens the mold after cooling, and ejects the finished part. Thermoplastic injection molding reduces pelletized raw materials and colorants into a hot liquid. Blow molding is similar to injection molding except that hot liquid plastic comes out of a barrel vertically, in a hollow molten tube.
