Overview
Plastic injection molds for medical parts are highly specialized tools designed to produce precision components used in the medical industry. These molds are engineered to create parts with tight tolerances, high durability, and biocompatibility, ensuring they meet strict regulatory standards. The injection molding process involves injecting molten plastic into a custom-designed mold cavity, which then cools and solidifies to form the final part. This technique is ideal for producing high volumes of consistent, complex medical components such as syringes, surgical instruments, and connectors, with minimal waste and maximum efficiency.

The Production Process of Mold:
-
Design for Manufacturability (DFM) Report
– Develop a comprehensive DFM report that evaluates the design’s feasibility and identifies potential manufacturing challenges. This includes assessing the product design for optimal moldability and cost-effectiveness.
-
Mold Design
– Create detailed and precise mold designs using advanced CAD software. This step involves defining mold geometry, cavity layout, and essential features based on the product specifications and requirements.
-
Material Selection
– Choose high-quality materials for mold construction, such as steel alloys or specialized polymers, based on the requirements of the product and the intended application.
-
CNC Machining
– Utilize CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machines to precisely cut and shape mold components. CNC machining ensures high accuracy and consistency in mold parts production.
-
Laser Cutting
– Employ laser cutting technology for intricate and detailed cuts in mold components. This process provides high precision and clean edges, essential for complex mold designs.
-
Wire Cutting
– Use Wire EDM (Electrical Discharge Machining) to cut intricate details and complex shapes in the mold components. Wire cutting is critical for achieving high precision and fine tolerances.
-
Grinding
– Perform grinding to refine mold surfaces and ensure smooth finishes. This process enhances the accuracy of mold components and removes any residual machining marks.
-
Assemble Mold
– Assemble all mold components, including cavities, cores, and inserts, into a complete mold structure. This step involves fitting parts together with precision to ensure proper functionality.
-
Stamping
– Apply stamping processes to create specific features or impressions on the mold. Stamping is used for adding logos, text, or other surface details as required.
-
Sample Inspection
– Conduct thorough inspections of sample molds to verify that they meet design specifications and quality standards. This includes testing for functionality, accuracy, and overall performance.
-
Mass Production
