Basic Steps of Plastic Mold Design

1. The first step we take when receiving the product is to carefully analyze the mold and inspect its structure. After completing these tasks, it is necessary to identify some factors that can affect the design of plastic molds, such as the model of the injection molding machine, the coding method of the injection molding machine, and any issues that may arise after analyzing the product. All of these need to be communicated with the customer to achieve the best plastic mold design results.

2. Determine what structure the product will adopt, establish the process flow for mold making, and provide specific operational steps. Use design software for specific design.

3. Prepare the product according to the previous step and determine the mold size in the sample. It is best to prepare materials directly on the unfolded image of the sample, which can save work time.

4. Start drawing the mold design diagram. Detailed drawings should be made for each component of the mold to reflect various data, especially dimensions, which also facilitates subsequent work.

5. After drawing the mold drawings, it is necessary to conduct proofreading and effectively analyze the drawings of each component to ensure that there are no errors when they are put into production.
