\n

Are you working on the specifications that needed for tool building and injection molding? Here, we are going to talk about some specifications that might help you out.<\/p>\n

1. Specify materials – Affects the steel selection for Rapid<\/strong> Prototype Tooling<\/strong>\/production tooling.<\/p>\n

2. Estimated weight of component – You can have a rough estimation by measuring the 3D model.<\/p>\n

3. Expected color – Transparent, Translucent or Opaque then specify so related to the colorant selection.<\/p>\n

4. Surface finish – The finish bears on the draft number on the part and steel for tooling. If texture finish, setting draft according to the roughness of that finish.<\/p>\n

5. Clear about the mold splits and ejection component. Try the best to avoid splits happens on appearance surfaces.<\/p>\n

6. How many quantities – Just need small quantities 10\/1000 parts or mass production later? This will be drastically affected on the mold design. If there are large volume production requirement, best is start with low volume manufacturing<\/a><\/strong> first and may call for multiple molds later.<\/p>\n

7. If the part needed in large volume – Build the tool in product mold way. Optimizing the mold design and shortening the cycle time.<\/p>\n

8. DFM – To shoot down nearly all the potential issues before moving ahead, saving your cost and time for modification.<\/p>\n
