posted 04.22.2014
Shine Sen Tech has 20 years of experience as a custom plastic insert molder.
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, PC or just about any substance that can withstand the plastic injection molding process.
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 fasteners 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
