Splay is a common cosmetic defect that can occur during the injection molding process. As a professional injection molding manufacturer, I am writing this guide to cover everything you need to know about what causes splay on injection molded parts and how to prevent it. What is Splay in Injection Molding? Splay refers to the […]

Voids are a common defect in injection molding that occur when air pockets or empty spaces form within a molded part. As I explained in my complete guide to injection molding, they can be caused by a number of factors. In this post, as a professional injection molding manufacturer, I’ll outline the main causes of

A short shot is one of the most common defects in injection molding. It occurs when the molten plastic fails to completely fill the mold cavity during the injection process. This results in an incomplete part with flaws like voids, sink marks, or thin areas. Understanding what causes short shots and how to prevent them

Uno de los componentes más importantes de los moldes de inyección, pero que se pasa por alto, son los cierres. ¿Qué es un cierre en el moldeo por inyección? Como fabricante profesional de moldes de inyección de plástico, le ayudaré a averiguarlo.

Injection molding is a common manufacturing process used to produce plastic parts. At the heart of every injection mold is the core and cavity which shape the final molded product. But what exactly are the core and cavity? And what is the difference between them? In this comprehensive guide, as a professional plastic injection molding

Decompression, also known as suckback, is an important setting in injection molding that helps relieve pressure at the end of the injection process. As a professional plastic injection molding manufacturer, I am sharing this detailed look at what decompression is, why it’s important, and how it impacts the injection molding process. What is Decompression in

Dosing is a critical part of the injection molding process. It involves delivering a precise amount of plastic material, along with any necessary additives like colorants or reinforcements, into the injection molding machine. Getting the dosing step right is essential for producing consistent, high-quality plastic parts. So in this post, as a professional plastic injection

What is draft angle injection molding? Simply put, a draft angle is a taper that’s applied to the walls of injection molded plastic parts. Draft angles help with ejecting parts from the mold after the injection molding process. In this complete guide, as a professional plastic injection molding manufacturer, I’ll explain everything you need to

What is flash in injection molding? Well, flash refers to excess plastic that leaks out of the mold cavity during the injection molding process. It leaves thin “flaps” of plastic attached to the final part.

Gas assist injection molding is an innovative manufacturing process that produces hollow plastic parts. This technique combines traditional injection molding with pressurized inert gas to improve part quality, strength, surface finish and more. I’ve been getting a lot of questions lately about gas assist injection molding and how it works. As a professional plastic injection
