The two-shot molding process improves the final product in terms of feel, color, and functionality. There are many design opportunities to suit specific preferences. Examples of two-shot injection molded products include toothbrush handles, buttons, switches, caps and closures, and hand and power tools.

The process involves several steps. First, part #1 is injected. Next, the core insert is set back to release space for the molding part. Finally, part #2 is injected. This process enables the production of high-quality products with exceptional precision and accuracy. Packson has extensive experience in this technology and can provide you with exceptional products and services.

As the 2K moulding factories, we operate 2K injection molding at one machine and perform two injections in one cycle. For the first cycle, plastic material is injected into a mold. Then rotated automatically and mix another property of plastic which was injected into the mold by the second nozzle.

2K injection molding integrates two different grad materials like hard and soft material to make a perfect combination with production. Two color injection molding is widely used in a variety of industries and it also allows for using clear plastics, colored patterns, and new style designs which help to make functionality products like medical plastic parts and reach marketplace value.

Class 8 cleanroom injection molding is capable of providing you with high-quality, low-pollution plastic products.

The 2K technology with transfer by robot is a highly efficient and cost-effective alternative to the rotary table method. This technology involves the use of a robot arm to switch the molding part, resulting in significant savings in equipment investment costs. This technology is commonly applied to simple products and products with metal inserts.

2K injection molding, also named a double injection, two-color injection molding, or 2 shot molding, is a process used to produce molded parts from two different materials with two colors.

Two-shot plastic injection molding is an injection molding process used to create multilayer, multicolor, or multi-material parts in a single process. This process is also sometimes referred to as two shot injection molding, 2-shot molding, 2K, multilayer, multi-shot injection molding, or multishot molding. Multi-shot manufactured products eliminate steps in the manufacturing process while creating a more cost-effective, enhanced finished product.

At Fabrik Molded Plastics, Inc., we offer custom two-shot plastic injection molding capabilities. Other service offerings include precision plastic injection molding, insert molding, CT scanning, scientific plastic injection molding, automotive lighting, tooling transfers, and custom automation services.

The 2K injection molding allows us to integrate multiple properties into one product: for instance, layered products, combinations of hard and soft plastic for making different color combinations.

The two-shot injection molding process consists of two main phases. Similar to traditional injection molding, the first phase involves injecting resin into a mold, which is then cooled to form a solid part in the shape of the mold. The second phase involves overmolding the 1st shot by transferring it to a second cavity by robot or rotating platen. The two plastic resins will form a molecular bond and, once cooled and ejected, becomes a finished multi-resin molded part.

Multi-component molding is a highly efficient and cost-effective technology that enables the molding of custom plastic parts using two or three plastic resins or colors in a single operation, resulting in faster cycle times and flash-free products. As a leading expert in this technology, Packson has mastered the process and has been manufacturing parts using multi-component molding for many years.

Equiping with precision processing and production equipment, and strictly adhere to the quality control processes of ISO9001 and ISO13485 to ensure quality control.

Also called multi-shot or double-injection molding, two-shot injection molding is an over-molding process that adheres additional material—like thermoplastic elastomer (TPE)—to plastic substrates to improve the appearance, grip, handling, environmental resistance, or impact resistance of injection molded components. Two-shot injection molding is typically performed by multi-barrel injection molding machines, which add extra material shortly after forming the substrate to create strong bonds between the materials.

2K mold design is a pivotal factor for molding success.  Followings are factors that will make an influence 2k molding: dimensioning and location of the sprue gates, dimensioning of shear edges, flow aids, cooling and ejector techniques, etc. Here at Packson 2k moulding factories, we keep making good 2K mold designs and we are committed to making durable mold that is highly efficient operating and easy to make maintenance and molding production.

Our world-class production and testing equipment provides a strong guarantee for the precision of your products.

2K injection molding is perfect for combinations of hard and soft plastics and also if you want to process 2 colors of plastic in one product.

The process involves several steps. First, part #1 is injected. Next, the core side rotates 180° in the vertical direction. Finally, in the next cycle, part #2 is injected, followed by another injection of part #1. This process enables the production of high-quality products with exceptional precision and accuracy. Packson has extensive experience in this technology and can provide you with exceptional products and services.

2K injection molding is a good way for you if you want to combine two different materials like hard material and soft material into one product by injection molding processing. We create full products in 2 steps by two color injection molding. The most common example made by 2K injection molding is bicycle handlebar, automotive button, toothbrushes with hard handle and soft handle piece, medical diagnosis machine control button, etc.

The 2K injection molding allows us to combine two different properties of the material with hard and soft plastic for making two different colors. 2k injection moulding has wide applications and many strengthes.

With our state-of-the-art 2K injection machines and advanced 2K technology, we are capable of manufacturing various types of 2K molds. As your competent partner in this area, Packson is committed to providing you with the highest quality products and services. We would be glad to support you in any way we can.

The 2K technology with core-back method is a highly cost-effective solution that reduces the number of core sides required compared to the transfer method while still achieving the 2K injection process in a single mold. This technology offers exceptional cost efficiency and is commonly applied to functional parts without high surface requirements.

The core-back method also offers excellent quality stability, as the two molding steps can be completed in a single cavity, avoiding part warpage issues during mold open and part transfer. This method is more stable than the over-molding method, resulting in high-quality products with exceptional precision and accuracy.

The 2K technology with rotation table is a highly advanced and mature technology that offers significant advantages over traditional over-molding techniques. This technology enables the simultaneous injection of two colors, resulting in high efficiency and exceptional stability. Additionally, this technology can be applied to a wide range of products.

The process involves several steps. First, part #1 is injected. Next, the robot arm transfers the part #1 to the second molding position. Finally, in the next cycle, part #2 is injected, followed by another injection of part #1. This process enables the production of high-quality products with exceptional precision and accuracy. Packson has extensive experience in this technology and can provide you with exceptional products and services.

For bonding to occur, the two parts undergoing the two-shot molding process must be chemically compatible. Fabrik consults with customers and material suppliers to ensure proper material selection for the specific application.

Commonly used materials for two-shot injection molding include thermoplastics, thermoplastic elastomers, and liquid silicone rubber.
