Mold Design

Mold designs are complicated and getting it right is critical to the success of a project. We use a combination of experience and technology to plan the design and test the concept using CAD software.

By using mold-flow simulation software, we can create a simulation of a part in a mold as the mold fills, packs and cools during the injection molding process. This means problems can be solved before the parts or mold are even produced. Not all customers or all molds require this step, but it’s available based on our recommendation or a customer’s request.

Scientific Approach to Plastic Injection Molding

Image
 Ayanna Plastics & Engineering is committed to the discipline known as scientific molding. Scientific molding helps to ensure complete control over the injection-molding process by focusing on the chemistry and composition of the material used to create the components, rather than just the machines used. The molder adheres to an established set of principles throughout the process. This means more robust and repeatable molding processes. We even discuss the benefits of scientific molding in product design , tooling design and resin selection with our customers to help them achieve the best possible results. Injection molding is constantly evolving with new materials, equipment and technology. To ensure we are moving in the same direction, Ayanna has the tools in place to evaluate, monitor and adjust the variables that impact molding, such as, injection pressure, machine variation, injection volume, viscosity and more.

Mold Design by Ayanna Plastics & Engineering

  Mold Design With a solid part design that meets the desired objectives and allows for optimal manufacturing, the mold design begins. The mold specifics depend on things such as the type of resin used, the number of parts desired, the complexity of the part and length of time available to build the mold. Beginning with the mold classification, a design engineer develops the requirements for a mold build . This is a complex print that covers every detail of a mold. These details include the action that is needed (for example, if the part needs a hole), the location of the gate, parting line and ejector pins. These features are important to the design of the mold because they will affect how a part looks. You’ll want to understand these aspects before approving the design.
