How to Design Injection Molds - Expert Guide | Qingdao KAILY

Qingdao Kaily Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. follows a systematic approach to design injection molds. The process begins with a thorough understanding of the customer's product requirements, including its functionality, appearance, and production volume. Based on this information, the company's experienced design engineers use advanced 3D design software to create the initial mold design. During this stage, they consider factors such as the part's geometry, draft angles, wall thicknesses, and gate locations to ensure proper mold filling and part ejection. Mold flow analysis is then conducted using simulation software to predict the flow of molten plastic within the mold, identify potential issues such as air traps, weld lines, and short shots, and optimize the design accordingly. The design team also takes into account the material properties of the plastic to be used, as different materials have different flow characteristics and shrinkage rates. After the initial design is completed, it undergoes a detailed review by a team of experts, who check for any design flaws or areas for improvement. Based on the feedback, the design is refined until it meets all the requirements. This comprehensive design process ensures that the injection molds designed by Qingdao Kaily are functional, efficient, and capable of producing high - quality molded products.
