What is the difference between injection molds and injection molds?

Time:2024-01-23 Views:1


1. Differences in purpose

(1) Injection molds are molds used for injection molding processes, while injection molds are molds used for injection molding processes.

(2) Injection molding is the process of injecting molten plastic materials into a mold and obtaining the required plastic products after cooling and solidification. Injection molding, on the other hand, involves injecting molten metal materials into a mold and obtaining the required metal products after cooling and solidification.

2. Differences in structural design

(1) Injection molds are usually composed of mold seats, cores, cavities, and ejection mechanisms. The mold seat is the supporting part of the mold, while the mold core and cavity are the cavity parts that form the product. The ejection mechanism is used to eject the injection molded product from the mold.

(2) The structure of injection molds is relatively complex, usually including mold seats, cores, cavities, ejection mechanisms, and other auxiliary structures, such as nozzles, cooling systems, etc. The structural design of injection molds is more complex because the metal injection molding process needs to withstand higher pressure and temperature.

3. Differences in application fields

(1) Injection molds are widely used in the production of plastic products, such as plastic parts, containers, toys, etc.

(2) Injection molds are mainly used for the production of metal products, such as automotive parts, home appliance accessories, industrial equipment, etc.

(3) Due to the higher requirements of metal injection molding technology for molds, injection molds usually require the use of more wear-resistant and high-temperature resistant materials, and require more complex processing processes.

In summary, the differences between injection molds and injection molds are mainly reflected in manufacturing processes, structural design, and application fields. Injection molds are suitable for the production of plastic products and have a relatively simple structure; Injection molds are suitable for the production of metal products and have a relatively complex structure. Understanding these differences can help us better understand and choose suitable mold types to meet different manufacturing needs.
