What should be paid attention to when protecting and repairing injection molds in injection molding factories?
Date: September 12, 2024
The protection and maintenance of injection molds are crucial links in injection molding factories, playing a decisive role in ensuring the shape, specifications, dimensions, and appearance smoothness of products. The mold is made of steel and usually includes a front mold and a rear mold. When protecting injection molds, attention should be paid to multiple aspects to ensure their safety and long-lasting use.
1. Rust prevention of injection molds is an important part.
To prevent rusting of injection molds caused by factors such as water leakage, condensation, rain, fingerprints, etc. Secondly, collision prevention measures cannot be ignored to prevent mold damage caused by broken or improperly retracted top pins. In addition, deburring work is also crucial to prevent burrs from forming on the mold, which can affect product quality. At the same time, the situations of missing parts, anti pressure, and under pressure also need to be taken seriously to avoid mold damage and production interruption caused by them.
2.When repairing the mold, attention should be paid to avoiding collision and water splashing, and the movement should be smooth.
Spray hot mold, spray a small amount of release agent, and conduct a comprehensive inspection and rust prevention treatment on the mold to ensure its normal operation. Mold maintenance is also an indispensable step, especially during continuous operation, problems such as component wear, lubricant deterioration, and water leakage need to be dealt with in a timely manner.
3. Injection mold maintenance generally includes daily maintenance and lower mold maintenance.
Daily maintenance includes steps such as regular rust removal, re lubrication, and replacement of easily worn parts. And the maintenance of the lower mold requires professional maintenance personnel to dismantle the mold, conduct professional testing and protection of the mold cavity, ejector pin, etc., to ensure the normal operation of the mold and extend its service life.
In order to avoid production delays and high maintenance costs caused by damage to injection molds, some companies have developed products such as mold protectors through research and improvement to improve production efficiency and save costs. The application of injection mold protection system can effectively protect expensive molds and ensure smooth production.
In injection molding factories, the protection and maintenance of injection molds are crucial, requiring careful care and regular maintenance to ensure the normal operation and production efficiency of the molds. Only by scientifically and reasonably protecting and repairing molds can we maximize their service life, improve production efficiency, reduce production costs, and make the injection molding industry more prosperous and developed.
