What's Insert Molding
Insert molding is an injection molding technique that involves injecting a plastic material around a plastic or metal insert placed in a mold cavity. The insert is pre-placed in the mold cavity, after which the plastic is injected. On cooling, this forms a solid part that is strong and durable. RapidDirect plastic insert molding services allow you to make a strong and permanent bond between the insert and molded plastic.
- Eliminate assembly: Insert molded parts do not require assembly because there is only one manufacturing process.
- Reduce costs: The removal of the assembly process reduces the cost of the insert molding process compared to the standard injection molding.
- Reduced part size and weight: Insert molded parts that weigh less than all-metal parts.
- Improve part strength: Incorporating plastic and metal inserts increases the durability and strength of the parts compared to other injection molding processes.
