How to Design Household Plastic Mould? What Are the Steps?

As we come into contact with more and more mold production industries, we should also have some understanding of mold production. So do you know what are the design steps of household plastic moulds? What skills do mold designers in the mold industry need to master? Although this is not what we are very concerned about, it needs to be understood.

1. Design steps of household plastic mould

It's believed that those who know a little bit about mold design will know that it is very troublesome to really design a set of molds. First of all, if we need to design plastic molds, we need to accept the task book. Only after accepting the task book can we know what kind of hints are in the task book, and the designer can better follow these tips to design. The second step is to collect, analyze and digest the original data. Usually, it will take some time to complete this step, because we collect and sort out relevant production design, molding process, molding equipment, mechanical processing, and special processing data, just so that we don't need to worry too much when designing the model.

After designing the household plastic mould, it is necessary to determine the molding method of the mold. This step is particularly important, because what we need is the design step of the plastic mold. Usually, the plastic mold adopts direct pressure, casting or injection. Then it is the choice of molding equipment. When choosing this item, it needs to be selected according to the performance and specifications of the molding equipment. If the equipment is selected correctly, the mold that comes out will be more perfect. The last thing is to sort out the data and file it. After the mold test, it needs to be wiped well, then coated with anti-rust oil, and sent to the storage place for storage.

2. Matters needing attention in the design of household plastic moulds

After understanding, it is found that a qualified mold designer needs to master mechanical drawing. It would be better if he has learned it, but if he has not learned it, he can buy books to learn it. Designers of plastic mold manufacturers also need to have a certain understanding of the processing technology, because only by understanding the processing technology can they take this part into consideration when designing the mold. In addition, a qualified mold designer needs to master the theoretical knowledge of plastics, injection molding machines, products, etc. In fact, this kind of theoretical knowledge is relatively simple. We need to read more books to learn more, and pay more attention to daily operations, so that we can gradually learn it through the accumulation of time.

There are many things that designers need to master in the design steps of plastic molds. For example, the mold structure is the core thing that designers need to master. Only by understanding the mold structure can they design a complete mold with their own information. In addition, if plastic mold manufacturers want to design molds, they cannot do without software operation, so they must be proficient and proficient in software operation ability. Classic drawing software like CAD is still very necessary to learn, and it is said that designers have very strict requirements for shortcut keys, and even the shortcut keys can be switched with only gestures.
