Insert Molding
Our Insert Molding Technologies
In addition to general injection molding, we provide insert molding. Insert molding is a process that molds a wide range of materials as inserts, from metals to copper foil plates. We also design primary moldings to be used in secondary insert moldings.
About Insert Molding
Hoop Molding
Depending on the product design, the molding machine can use a vertical or horizontal alignment. The dimensional accuracy (position degree, concentricity, flatness, etc.) can be adjusted according to each customer’s quality specifications through automatic or manual insert molding techniques. The major processes involve hoop molding, including insertion of an internal metal member.
Resin Materials Used
Engineering plastics are the focus of resin materials used in insert molding.
These are the resins that have performed well.
- PBT(GF30%)
- PPS(GF40%)
- PA6(without G)(GF30%)(GF40%)
- PA66(GF30%)
- LCP
Insert materials can also be procured by us or provided by the customer.
