Metal precision mold insert

Specifications

precision mold insert

 Plastic injection insert molding is a plastic injection molding process in which thermoplastic material is molded around an insert piece or pieces placed in the plastic injection molding cavity, resulting in a single strongly bonded, integrated assembly, with the insert or inserts encapsulated by the plastic. Inserts can be metal, another plastic, ceramic or just about any substance that can withstand the plastic injection molding process.

Insert Molding: Vertical Integration

Each WISHMOULDS facility that performs insert molding also performs precision metal stamping. As a result, WISHMOULDS provides these services to customers in a vertically integrated environment, reducing total acquisition costs and improving quality by eliminating the opportunity for defects between processes.

Plastic injection insert molding is an effective alternative to assemblies manufactured using soldering, adhesives or fasteners, with benefits including:

• Reduced assembly and labor costs
  Molded as one assembly
• Reduced size and weight
  Insert molding allows for reduction of part size and weight because parts are joined with strong, light weight plastic resin and fasters or connectors are eliminated.
• Improved component reliability
  Insert molding of components ensures proper alignment, prevents loosening and the plastic resin can provide improved resistance to vibration and shock
• Improved part strength and structure
  Insert molding combines the physical strength of the plastic resin and insert to produce one seamless plastic part
• Enhanced design flexibility
  Custom plastic insert molding allows for almost unlimited configurations and material combinations
• Consolidation of components
  Insert molded components enable part and inventory cost reductions
