Thin Wall Container Molding Production Line--Sino
Plastic Thin Wall Product Molding Production Line
1. The following industries make use of thin wall plastic product:
1) food packaging ( e.g. food containers and lids)
2) automotive (e.g. both structural and non-structural car parts)
3) mobile telecommunications (e.g. mobile phone housings)
4) medical (e.g. syringes)
5) computing equipment (e.g. computer housings)
6) Some thin-walled parts can be made of sustainable plastic.
2. Advantage
1) Cheap, safe and clean plastic parts.
2) Thin wall molding reduces resource consumption and cuts weight, reducing fuel usage and carbon emissions in shipping – further supporting sustainability efforts.
3) Allows faster cycle times compared with thicker walled plastic parts. This is good for injection molders because it reduces their delivery lead time and cost per part.
4) Lighter parts reduce fuel emissions in automotive applications.
3. Disadvantage
1) High capital investment cost for injection molders. Thin wall molding requires specialized molding machines, injection molds and robots that can withstand the high stresses, fast cycle times and 24/7 production schedules.
2) To make thin wall parts requires highly skilled molding technicians and these are difficult to find and keep.
Typically, "thin wall” is considered as plastics parts or plastic packaging with a wall thickness less than 0.6 mm. Thin wall container is very popular in market all over the world.
Thin wall injection molding needs molding speeds, so it requires a very good cooling system and high hardness in order to ensure the short cycle and the mold life. In China, Micon Mould has rich experience in thin wall mold making.
As for the thin wall mould, we always use high speed milling machine and some other high precision tooling machine to tool it, the dimension tolerance should be controlled within 0.05mm. And there will have many inserts so as to maintain the molds.
Regarding the ejection system for thin wall container mould, we usually use air to blow off the cavity. It requires the parts demolding quickly and then use air ejection or air with stripper plate assistance.
Cooling system is very important to such thin wall mould. For such molding speeds,we should add water channel as more as possible, strengthen the water circulation. Usually we use chilled water. So our mould steels are stainless steel.
Please feel free to contact us when you need any thin wall injection moulds or when you need high speed thin wall injection molding solutions.
