With the increasing development of technology, plastic products have become an irreplaceable product in our daily lives. In real life, plastic products have almost conquered various categories, such as cars, ships, airplanes, computers, phones, and other substances that everyone can see at any time in life. Some of their plastic parts are molded through plastic molds. When a product is born, it needs to be molded first. When we need to find a mold factory, we often think that injection molds and plastic molds are the same thing. So, to understand the difference between plastic molds and injection molds, please read this article. Jiekai Mold will take you to understand the difference between them!

Plastic mold, a combination plastic mold used for compression molding, extrusion molding, injection molding, blow molding, and low foaming molding, mainly comprising a concave mold with a variable cavity composed of a concave mold composite substrate, a concave mold component, and a concave mold composite card plate, and a convex mold with a variable core composed of a convex mold composite substrate, a convex mold component, a convex mold composite card plate, a cavity cutting component, and a side cutting composite plate. Coordinated changes between convex and concave molds and auxiliary forming systems. Can process series plastic parts of different shapes and sizes.

Injection mold is a tool for producing plastic products; It is also a tool for giving plastic products a complete structure and size. Injection molding is a processing method used in mass production of complex shaped components. Specifically, it refers to injecting melted plastic into the mold cavity under high pressure from an injection molding machine, cooling and solidifying it to obtain a molded product. The injection mold consists of two parts: a moving mold and a fixed mold. The moving mold is installed on the moving template of the injection molding machine, and the fixed mold is installed on the fixed template of the injection molding machine. During injection molding, the movable and fixed molds are closed to form the pouring system and cavity. When opening the mold, the movable and fixed molds are separated to remove the plastic product. In order to reduce the heavy workload of mold design and manufacturing, most injection molds use standard mold frames.

From the above content, it can be seen that there are still differences between plastic molds and injection molds. Understanding this knowledge also facilitates communication between us and plastic mold manufacturers, avoiding errors.
