The Cost Is Wasted Due To A Large Number Of Mould Tests Of The Crate Mould

The waste of energy in the plastic industry is serious. Due to the high cost of electricity, electricity accounts for a considerable proportion of the enterprise's production cost and has become an important factor in the enterprise's serious environmental production efficiency.

With the intensification of market competition, enterprises are taking various energy-saving measures to reduce production costs and improve market competition. They can customize products according to the motor power, motor speed, pump displacement and system pressure of the user's injection moulding machine to meet all specifications of equipment, installation process and common moulding machines. They are convenient and simple, and are welcomed by the general plastic industry. They not only cater to the national energy conservation and emission reduction, but also save energy and reduce consumption, and also bring considerable economic benefits. It is also very important for energy conservation to reduce the number of mould tests for crate mould.

What is the effect of the number of mould tests on the Crate Mould?

1. The design of the crate mould was not fully reviewed by the collective, and the structure of the crate mould was unreasonable, which made the crate mould undergo many improvements after the mould test, thus making the cost of the crate mould exceed the budget.

If it can be fixed after several improvements, it is lucky. There are many cases that are not satisfactory. Even if the crate mould has to be scrapped and rebuilt, the cost cannot be controlled.

There are also some cases where the design of the crate mould is very good, but the processing of the mould is not in place, which increases the number of mould tests for no reason and directly increases the cost of the crate mould. There is no objection to this problem, so many injection mould manufacturers have increased the investment of measuring equipment.

2. The moulding process and the model of the injection moulding machine were not selected during the mould test. Obviously, the crate mould was well done, but the injection moulded products were not ideal, which increased the number of mould tests for no reason and directly increased the cost of the injection mould.

3. The physical properties of plastic are not fully understood, even the shrinkage rate is not accurate. This happens from time to time. Therefore, the physical properties of plastic must be made clear before designing the crate mould, so as to effectively reduce the number of mould tests.
