Insert molding refers to the molding process of injecting resin into a pre prepared heterogeneous insert into a mold, and then bonding and solidifying the melted material with the insert to produce an integrated product. Its characteristics are as follows:
- The combination of resin’s easy formability, flexibility, and metal’s rigidity, strength, and heat resistance can be used to make complex and exquisite metal plastic integrated products.
- Especially by utilizing the combination of resin insulation and metal conductivity, molded products can meet the basic functions of electrical products.
- The pre molding combination of multiple inserts makes the post engineering of product unit combinations more rational.
- Embedded products are not limited to metals, but also include various types such as cloth, paper, wires, plastics, glass, wood, wire coils, electrical components, etc.
- For rigid molded products and bending elastic molded products on rubber sealing pads, integrated products can be made by injection molding on the substrate, eliminating the complex operation of arranging sealing rings and making the automation combination of subsequent processes easier.
- Because it is the fusion of materials and metal inserts, compared to the pressing molding method, the gap between metal inserts can be designed to be narrower, resulting in higher reliability in the formation of composite products..
- Choose appropriate resin and molding conditions, that is, for products that are prone to deformation and damage (such as glass, coils, electrical parts, etc.), resin can also be used to seal and fix them.
- Choose an appropriate mold structure, and the embedded parts can also be completely sealed into the resin.
- The combination of vertical injection molding machines, robotic arms, and embedded product sorting devices can achieve automated production in most embedded molding projects.
- After the embedded parts are formed, they can also be made into products with hollow grooves after core hole removal treatment.
