Overview of our injection mold making services
Our core competitiveness in mold manufacturing is reflected in the following three stages:
Mold Design
Mold Machining
Mold assembly
Precision Mold Manufacturing Technology
In our state-of-the-art facility, we utilize cutting-edge technology to deliver custom injection molds of the highest precision. Our factory-customized equipment allows for complex designs, ensuring impeccable accuracy and repeatability in the mold manufacturing process. By utilizing advanced technology, we guarantee molds that meet or exceed industry standards, resulting in superior product quality and performance.
Tailor-made Product Design Solutions
We understand that every product design is unique, with specific requirements and challenges. Our factory-made custom injection mold solutions provide the flexibility to meet these individual needs. We have a dedicated team of engineers who work closely with our customers to fully understand their design goals and complexities. This personalized approach ensures that the mold design is optimized to produce a product that meets or exceeds expectations while reducing production time and costs.
Injection Mold Types
We can manufacture injection moulds from aluminium (ideal for rapid low volume prototyping) or tool steel. The moulds comply with the SPl mould classification which specifies the durability of the mould and the number of cycles it can handle.
Standard injection mold tools are categorized from Class 105 (prototype) to Class 101 (high volume production). These tooling categories help manage customer and supplier expectations regarding overall tooling requirements and scope.
Over 1,000,000 cycles. They are designed for extremely high production volumes. These are the highest priced molds and are made with only the finest quality materials. 101 grade molds are also known as l-grade tools. Example: Multi-cavity steel tool with full automation and night work center for dedicated part manufacturing.
Medium to high production tooling for abrasives or parts requiring close tolerances. This is a high quality, reasonably priced tooling. Grade 102 tooling is also known as Grade ll tooling. Example: Steel tooling with SPl A-2 surface finish, automatic slide, scheduled production cycles.
Less than 500,000 cycles. Medium production tooling. This is a very popular tooling for low to medium production needs. Most common price range. Also called Class III tooling. Examples: Aluminum or steel tooling, automatic lifts or slides, multiple repeat run batches between 1,000-5,000 units.
Less than 100,000 cycles. Low production tooling. For limited production only, preferably with non-abrasive materials. Price range is low to medium. Grade 104 tooling is also known as Grade IV tooling. Examples: Aluminum or MUD tooling, SPl B-3 finish, hand loaded cores, and limited heavy runs.
Less than 500 cycles. Prototypes only. This mold will be manufactured at the lowest possible cost to produce a minimum number of prototype parts. Class 105 molds are also known as Class V tools. Example: One-off market test of 100 molded units.
What is Injection Molding?
The injection molding process begins with plastic resin pellets. The resin is heated to a molten state and then shot into the mold. The plastic pellets are loaded into a hopper, which feeds the injection molding machine. The pellets are gravity-fed from the hopper into a heated chamber (called a barrel), where they are melted, compressed, and injected into the mold’s runner system by a reciprocating screw. Runners are channels in the mold that deliver molten plastic to the mold cavity.
The pellets are slowly moved forward by a spiral plunger, and the molten plastic is forced through a nozzle connected to the mold’s gate bushing, which controls the flow of material into the mold cavity through the gate and runner system.
The metal mold is kept at a lower temperature, so the plastic solidifies almost immediately after the mold is filled. The part cools and hardens into the shape of the mold cavity. The two halves of the mold, the A and B sides, or the cavity and core, open, and the ejector pins push the part out of the mold, and the part falls into a box. The mold is then closed and the process begins again.
Advantages of Injection Molding
- With plastic injection molds, you can produce large quantities of uniform, complex parts and geometries.
- Injection molded plastic parts are compatible with a wide range of colors and materials, including resins, silicones, thermoplastics, and thermosets.
- The injection mold is one of the strongest guarantees that the part matches the original. This not only ensures product quality and part reliability, but also reduces plastic material waste.
- Due to the simplicity of the process and high consistency, injection molding is the perfect solution for scaling up large-scale or batch production. Standardized injection molds enable manufacturers to produce to the specific requirements of their products and replicate them quickly and accurately.
- Products manufactured through injection molding can keep costs at extremely low levels. The more parts produced, the lower the unit cost, which makes plastic injection molding particularly suitable for large-scale production.
Focus on small and medium-volume orders
Low-volume plastic injection molding is primarily driven by customers with continuous product development cycles or low product demand. Xtmade works with product developers, OEMs, and tier suppliers to deliver plastic injection molded parts that meet tight specifications, timelines, and budgets.
Our low-volume molding customers highly value supplier relationships and utilize Xtmade as their preferred partner for plastic product development to troubleshoot, propose solutions, and share best practices in tool design and optimized processing for repeatability time after time.
Our customers consider bringing their next plastic development project to Xtmade because they have experienced firsthand what our team can offer!
