Design Injection Molded Plastic Parts
CFY specializes in designing injection molded plastic parts, injection molding automotive parts, and injection mold and has successfully collaborated with companies in these fields. We have over 14 years of experience in this field which gives us tremendous depth, experience & knowledge about molding. In our time helping clients with creating products and parts we've seen and done it all. Experience & expertise is important when it comes to manufacturing products.
Injection molding is a mature production process in which automotive mold manufacturers inject molten plastic material into mold cavities. The melted plastic then cools and solidifies, and the manufacturer extracts the finished parts. While the mold design process is crucial and challenging (poorly designed molds can lead to defects), injection molding itself is a reliable method for producing solid plastic parts with high-quality finishes.
Reasons why this process is advantageous for the production of automotive plastic parts:
- Repeatability:
In the automotive industry, repeatability—the ability to consistently produce identical parts—is crucial. Since automotive plastic injection molding typically relies on robust metal molds, the final molded automotive parts produced using the same mold are essentially identical. While some factors may affect injection molding, with well-designed and precision-engineered molds, injection molding is a highly repeatable process.
- Scale and Cost:
Due to the cost of molds, the injection mold manufacturing process can be an expensive undertaking. However, it is still a highly scalable process, and as manufacturers produce more parts, the overall cost decreases. Therefore, for mass production applications, injection molding is advantageous for manufacturers. However, the mold cost may inhibit cost efficiency for products that are not produced in large quantities.
- Material Availability:
A significant advantage of using injection molding in automotive production is the process's compatibility with a variety of rigid, flexible, and rubber plastics. Manufacturers use a range of different polymers for various automotive applications, including ABS, polypropylene, acrylic, acetal, nylon, polycarbonate, and more.
- High Precision and Surface Finish:
Injection molding is well-suited for producing plastic parts with relatively simple geometric shapes and achieving high surface finish quality. Manufacturers have various surface treatment options during part production, including different surface textures (e.g., gloss, rough, or matte), and these surface textures are applied directly to the mold rather than post-molding.
- Color Options:
In automotive plastic injection molding, it's easy to modify the color of molded automotive parts to match the vehicle's color scheme. Unlike other processes, injection molding allows you to mix dye with raw material pellets before manufacturing begins. This results in solid, consistent colors without the need for painting or coloring after molding is complete.
