High Quality Factory Price Melamine Split Mold
Mold structure
● Basic components:
Usually composed of an upper die (punch), a lower die (cavity), and a die base. When the upper and lower dies are combined, they form the tableware forming cavity. The die base is used to fix the die and connect it to the forming machine.
● Cavity Design:
Depending on the shape, size, and production requirements of the tableware, the cavity can be designed as single or multi-cavity. Multi-cavity molds can improve production efficiency. Common examples include two-cavity and four-cavity molds, which are used to produce cups, plates, and more.
● High precision requirements:
In order to ensure the dimensional accuracy and appearance quality of tableware, the processing accuracy of the mold is very high, and CNC machining centers are usually used for precision processing.
● Good thermal stability:
During the molding process, the mold has to withstand high temperatures of 130℃-150℃. Therefore, the mold material needs to have good thermal stability to avoid deformation or damage at high temperatures.
● High wear resistance:
When the melamine resin raw material is pressed and formed in the mold, it will cause friction on the mold surface, so the mold needs to have high wear resistance to extend its service life.
FAQ
Question1：How are the patterns and logos on the molds achieved?
1. Etching (chemical engraving):
Chemical etching is used to etch patterns, wood grain or logos on the surface of the mold steel. This is the most commonly used and economical method.
2. Engraving (mechanical engraving):
Use a precision engraving machine to directly carve out the pattern, which is suitable for finer and deeper textures.
Question2：What is a "one mold, multiple cavities" mold?
This refers to the simultaneous production of multiple cavities for the same or different products within a single mold base. For example, a single mold can simultaneously produce four rice bowls or two dinner plates and a spoon. This significantly improves production efficiency, but also increases mold manufacturing complexity and requires a higher tonnage and table size for the hydraulic press.
Question3： How to choose the right mold?
We offer a comprehensive mold catalog for your selection. Alternatively, you can search for the desired mold in your local market, provide us with the product dimensions and weight, and we can offer a design or directly send us a sample, and we will produce the mold accordingly.
Question4： What is the minimum order quantity for molds?
