How to control the processing cost of injection mold?

Some applications require high-hardness, high-wear-resistant mold steel to enhance the durability of the parting line, while other applications require higher toughness mold steel to resist mechanical fatigue, so the material should be processed before the injection mold is processed. The choice of the mold, the process of the mold and the management mode of the factory all affect the cost of injection mold processing, so in the production engineering, how should we control the cost of mold injection molding processing? 1. Selection of steel materials Some applications require high hardness and high wear resistance die steel to enhance the durability of the parting line, while other applications require higher toughness die steel to resist mechanical fatigue. In general, steels with higher hardness and wear resistance are more brittle, while in almost all cases, tougher steels are more resistant to steel-to-steel abrasion (adhesive abrasion), and to glass fiber or mineral fillings. Resin abrasive performance will be reduced. Injection mold manufacturers can choose to use stainless steel to mold resins that are corrosive to most other steels.

Before product production, careful selection of well-designed injection molds is the most basic way to reduce costs. Different mold design structures have different requirements for product materials, which are naturally good and bad. The finished product rate of the mold is high, less waste is generated, and the natural production cost is lower.

2. Reasonable processing technology The same product adopts different production and processing technology, and the quality and quantity of raw materials required are different. According to the characteristic requirements of the product, on the premise of meeting the quality requirements, the method of improving the processing technology can effectively reduce the production cost. 3. Scientific and reasonable management mode In the production process, scientific and reasonable management mode is adopted.

Strengthen cost accounting, and strengthen management in all aspects of production, supply, sales and finance. Raw materials, auxiliary materials, fuel, power, wages, manufacturing expenses, administrative expenses, etc. in the production cost are detailed into the unit product cost, and reasonable and standardized management is strictly prohibited. Injection mold processing manufacturers should reduce various unnecessary wastes in each link, so as to achieve reasonable storage and use of materials, reduce costs and improve efficiency.

This not only ensures the reasonable needs of production, but also reduces the occupation and waste of funds.
