It's ProTip Thursday ⚡ When designing injection moulded parts, it's important to pay attention to wall thickness. Try to use a constant or uniform wall thickness throughout the part, (if you can) to prevent your parts from warping. Generally, a thickness of 1.2-3.0mm works for most materials.

The fundamentals of ejector pin design in injection molds The principle of ejector pin design in injection molding involves removing the molded part from the cavity after cooling, ensuring that the part is released without damage. Key considerations include: 1. **Placement**: Ejector pins should be positioned at points of strength or thick areas of the part to avoid damaging delicate sections. Symmetry helps prevent distortion.    2. **Size and Shape**: Pins come in various sizes (round, flat, or custom shapes). The size should match the part's geometry to distribute the force evenly. 3. **Quantity**: More ejector pins may be necessary for larger or complex parts to ensure uniform release without warping. 4. **Ejector Stroke**: The stroke must be sufficient to push the part out without excessive force, preventing sticking or damage. 5. **Pin Clearance**: Proper clearance between the pin and hole in the mold prevents wear and ensures smooth movement. 6. **Pin Materials**: Ejector pins are typically made from hardened steel to resist wear and withstand the force required for ejection.

What does the thermoplastic molding process look like at Leech Industries? Step 1: Mold design The process begins with the design of a custom mold, which determines the shape and features of the final plastic part. Step 2: Injection molding Our team heats the material until it reaches a molten state and injects it into the mold cavity under high pressure. This pressure ensures that the material completely fills the mold and takes its shape. Step 3: Cooling After the mold is filled, the plastic will cool and solidify within the mold cavity. Step 4: Mold opening Once the plastic has solidified, we will open the mold to reveal the newly formed plastic part. Step 5: Finishing operations Our team facilitates any necessary secondary operations (such as trimming, machining, or assembly) depending on the part's specific requirements. Step 6: Quality control The Leech team handles rigorous quality control to ensure that each molded part meets all specified tolerances and quality standards. This may involve visual checks, measurements, and other quality assurance methods. In addition, the Leech Industries team offers thermoset molding capabilities with entirely different processes.

Do you like this coffee maker 😉 This is a new prototype we made for customer. The processing technology still including CNC machining,polishing, UV coating, sheet metal fabrication,stifling,electro coating. However,we added a new structure inside:) The design have a LED sheet,when you connected with power,the LED screen will turn light to show different function for people to choose the way they like to make a drink. Excited,right：） 😊 📣 If have the idea to design your products and finished drawings, come to us for reviewing,we will help you to make prototypes to verify and mass production. #coffeemachine #productdesign #productdevelopment #cncmachining #sheetmetalfabrication #prototyping

#Highlypolished #injection #molds are high-end products in mold manufacturing. They refer to the mold surface that achieves extremely high smoothness and flatness through a fine polishing process. 💫 High finish: The mold surface can reflect light, and the #finish is usually above Ra 0.08μm, even reaching a #mirror effect. 💎 #Material selection: Choose high hardness and high wear-resistant mold materials, such as high-quality mold #steel, to increase the service life of the mold and maintain surface flatness. ✨ Design points: The mold surface #design should avoid sharp edges and transition areas, and use arc design to reduce indentations and defects during product #molding. 🕹 Maintenance and care: Clean and maintain the mold regularly to keep the mold #surface smooth and bright.
