Gestión de Compras designs, develops and manufactures injection molds for plastic parts of multiple sectors.
Process
Plastic injection molds are ideal for producing high volumes of plastic parts, due to the ability of making multi-cavity injection molded parts, where multiple parts are made with one cycle. Some advantages of injection molding are high tolerances, repeatability, a wide range of material selection, low labor cost, minimal scrap losses, and little need to finish parts after molding.
The basic equipment for the process of plastic injection consist of two main parts: Injection molding machine and mold.
Injection Molding Machine
Injection Molding Machine, also known as presses, consist of a material hopper, an injection ram or screw-type plunger, and a heating unit. Molds are clamped to the platen of the molding machine, where plastic is injected into the mold through the sprue orifice.
Mold
Mold or Die are the common terms used to describe the tooling to produce injection plastic parts. In molds is possible differentiate three principal parts: sprue, runners and mold cavity. In order to improve the part quality and the mold service life, this molds must be designed with the correct draft to facilitate the removal of the molded parts, thus as allowing air trapped into the mold to scape.
Tolerances
Dimensional tolerance depends of the method used to produce the mold. Machining process can reach tolerances slightly less than one tenth of mm, while EDM method are suitable for better tolerances, about hundredth of mm.
