What is the difference between injection mold and injection mold?

Injection mold and injection mold are two common mold types, and there are some differences in manufacturing process, structural design and application fields.

The following details the difference between injection molds and injection molds:

1. Use difference

(1) Injection mold is used for injection molding process mold, and injection mold is used for injection molding process mold.
(2) Injection molding is to inject the molten plastic material into the mold, and obtain the required plastic products after cooling and curing. Injection molding is to inject molten metal materials into the mold, and obtain the required metal products after cooling and curing.

2, the difference in structural design

(1) Injection molds are usually composed of mold base, mold core, mold cavity and ejector mechanism. The mold base is the support part of the mold, the mold core and the mold cavity are the cavity part that forms the product, and the ejector mechanism is used to ejector the injection molded product from the mold.
(2) The structure of the injection mold is relatively complex, usually including the mold base, mold core, mold cavity, ejector mechanism and other auxiliary structures, such as nozzles, cooling systems, etc. The structural design of injection molds is more complicated because the metal injection molding process needs to withstand higher pressures and temperatures.

3. Differences in application fields

(1) Injection molds are widely used in the production of plastic products, such as plastic parts, containers, toys, etc.
(2) Injection molds are mainly used for the production of metal products, such as auto parts, home appliance parts, industrial equipment, etc.
(3) Because the metal injection molding process has higher requirements for the mold, the injection mold usually needs to use more wear-resistant and high-temperature materials, and needs to go through a more complex processing process.

To sum up, the difference between injection molds and injection molds is mainly reflected in the manufacturing process, structural design and application fields. Injection mold is suitable for the production of plastic products, the structure is relatively simple; The injection mold is suitable for the production of metal products, and the structure is more complex. Understanding these differences can help us better understand and choose the appropriate mold type to meet different manufacturing needs.
