KAILY's mold creation process begins with a collaborative design phase, where the engineering team works closely with clients to define detailed specifications (load capacity, dimensions, material preferences, etc.). To ensure accuracy, KAILY uses advanced 3D modeling software (including SolidWorks and AutoCAD) to create virtual prototypes, allowing clients to visualize the final pallet and mold structure in 3D. This step enables early identification of potential design issues—such as insufficient material flow or weak structural points—before physical production begins.
After virtual validation, KAILY produces a physical prototype using CNC machining and 3D printing technologies. This prototype mold is tested with small-batch injection molding (typically 50-100 pallets) to verify performance, and design iterations are made based on real-world testing results. For example, a client in the automotive industry requested pallets with enhanced edge strength; KAILY’s prototype testing revealed a need for thicker ribbing, which was adjusted in the mold design—ensuring the final product met the client’s load requirements. This iterative process guarantees that full-scale production runs are free of costly design flaws.
Choosing the right material is critical to pallet performance, and KAILY’s material scientists provide tailored guidance based on client needs. KAILY works with a range of high-quality materials, each selected for specific properties:
-
Polypropylene (PP): Ideal for food and pharmaceutical pallets due to its non-toxicity, chemical resistance, and low moisture absorption. KAILY sources food-grade PP that meets FDA and EU 10/2011 standards.
-

-
Recycled PP/HDPE blends: For clients prioritizing sustainability, KAILY offers blends of recycled plastics that maintain 90% of the strength of virgin materials—while reducing carbon emissions by 30% compared to traditional production.
KAILY’s material selection process considers not only performance but also cost and mold longevity. For example, when a client requested cost-effective yet durable pallets for agricultural use, KAILY recommended a HDPE-recycled PP blend, balancing strength, cost, and environmental impact. This expertise ensures that every material choice aligns with the client’s functional needs and budget.
Once the mold design is finalized and materials are selected, KAILY moves to the manufacturing phase—using state-of-the-art precision machinery (including 5-axis CNC mills and EDM machines) to craft mold components with tolerances as tight as ±0.005mm.
