There is a huge pressure during the molding machine injection process. To avoid affecting the side and appearance(eg. burrs) of end products, we should keep the slider and core unmoved when molding machine injection. So the slider should use locking fixed method to keep it stay. normally, this part is motion-stoping block or heel.

c. There should has taper on SPRUE BUSHING head to fit for clamping and should be on the top clamping plate to avoid brush nozzle on the molding machine separating from SPRUE BUSHING and then result in brush, which is inconvenient to take out and affects next injection.

After cooling, the plastic will be narrowing and shortening, including the die core and the other parts (like oblique tip, slider, insert etc)Therefore, we must consider the enclosed strength that end product impact on slider, stress state, see pic on the right

The diameter of diagonal bracing tip is affected by many factors, like obliquity, length, and required de-molding distance. Thus, in designing, some parameters should be adjusted and matched to obtain the best result to make sure the slider to move smoothly. Calculation formula:

a.bottom wearable plate needs bevel, reduce loss between slide block and core plate, normally takes 1.5˚~3˚, assemble location be at the 3 / 4 of the center of gravity of the slide block.

S=(L1xsina-δ)/cosα(δ – the space between taper pin and slider, normally is 0.5MM,L1is the taper pin vertical distance inside the slider)

n. Explosive slide block must have shoulder (wings for fixing) to provide convenience for grouping mold and also a base level is necessary, cannot reduce the material)

Generally, forming on the cavity side and large slider forming area, especially using slider when the cavity side is very deep.

PBT is another commonly used thermoplastic for injection molding. Its molding temperature range is 428°F to 500°F, allowing for efficient processing in various injection molding machines.

Undercuts treatment uses the mold opening movement and ejection force to causes the tendency of relatively motion between angle pin and slider. There are two movements to make it separate from the undercut : mold opening direction & horizontal direction. As the below pic shows:

e.The wearable plate should be 0.5mm higher than master mold plate to protect the taste mold plate and support the support pulling block to prevent it from distorting due to the external force.

Generally, for thick and deep products’ wall, the side of the wall has many core pulling holes. The core pulling force is strong, so when moving the slide block, the product might be distorted or scratched. To avoid these happening, we need to place the ejector pin inside the slide block to stop the distortion or scratches.

PPS is a high-performance thermoplastic known for its exceptional chemical resistance, flame retardancy, and high-temperature stability. It has a molding temperature around 536°F to 626°F.

The slider will move a certain distance in mold opening. One way to make the slider return back smoothly is to use equipment to fix it and it should be flexible and stable so that the slider will stay at where it should be. Some exceptional situations do not need fixed equipments, like left to right slider, so it is suggested to apply a fixed equipment.

Undercut forming on the side of master mold. No marks allowed on appearance. Need to switch to master mold runner slider.

The size of pulling block section checking is as same as the calculation of diagonal bracing tip. It only needs to alter the last step. Formula:

Selecting the right injection molding materials can make or break your injection molding project. As you can see, each material has its unique properties, advantages, and limitations.
