Description
Yixing Plastics has many years of experience in custom plastic overmolding, overmolding is a plastic injection molding process in which one thermoplastic material is molded over another material to form one part.
Using two separate plastic injection molds on the plastic injection molding press, two materials are blended together during the plastic overmolding process. This process form plastic parts and components with unique visual or ergonomic appeal, normally be used such as produce handles or knobs.
Plastic overmolding technology is employed for a wide range of aesthetic and functional purposes in many industries and applications, such as Medical Devices, Appliances, Electronics, Consumer, Agricultural, and Automotive products and components.
Soft plastics such as urethanes and thermoplastic elastomers (TPE) and hard plastics such as nylon and polycarbonate are both can be overmolded.
Custom plastic overmolding is also used to protect and improve a part or end product, when reducing cost, labor and materials.
ADVANTAGES
Plastic overmolding offers many advantages, such as :
· Reduced secondary operation, assembly and labor costs
· Eliminates sticking step in the manufacturing process (Improved component reliability)
· Plastic overmolded components ensure proper alignment, the plastic resin can provide improved resistance to vibration and shock ,prevents loosening.
· Improved part strength.
· Feel more comfortable by hands .
· Enhanced design flexibility and multi-material components APPLICATIONS
Custom overmolded plastics provide competitive advantages in a wide range of applications, including:
· Medical devices and instruments
· Parts with soft grip handles
· Knobs for appliances, controls and assemblies
