For some friends, you may be unfamiliar with injection molds, but for those who often make liquid silicone products, they know the meaning of injection molds. As we all know, in the silicone industry, solid silicone is the cheapest, because It is injection-molded by a machine, but liquid silicone requires an injection mold. This is the reason why liquid silicone is more expensive than solid silicone. You must know that liquid silicone products need to be re-molded when every customer comes over. This has also led to an increase in the unit price of liquid silicone products.
When you customize liquid silicone products, the injection mold shows its value at this time, because this requires the liquid of the liquid silicone to be added to the mold first, and then the mold is continuously rotated along the two vertical axes and heated. Under the action of gravity and thermal energy, the plastic in the mold is gradually uniformly coated, melted and adhered to the entire surface of the mold cavity, and formed into the required shape. In fact, the specific method is to inject the heated and melted material into the mold by high pressure. After the cavity is cooled and solidified, the weight of the molded product, the mold and the frame itself are obtained to prevent the material from leaking; and the material is hardly affected by any external force during the entire molding process except for the action of natural gravity. Therefore, it fully possesses the advantages of convenient machining and manufacturing of machine molds, short cycle and low cost.
The above is the sharing of liquid silicone molds. In fact, most people think that liquid silicone is expensive, but they don't know why it is expensive. However, after reading today's sharing, I believe you will gain something.
