.Complex
moldings |
_Two
Shot Molding gives the capabilities to
produce moldings that are both visually
pleasing and also have the desired
characteristics that are required of the
component. |
|
|
. Cost reductions
|
– Two Shot Molding allows
complex component moldings to be molded in
a single tool. This means that post-molding
processes are not necessary to joint
separate moldings together or to apply
color to components. This also reduces the
amount of labour required and further
reduces running costs |
|
|
.Improved quality |
– As the entire production
process is carried out within the molding
tool, each of the component moldings will
be exactly the same. Enhanced machine
technology helps to lower tolerances and
ensure that the quality of every part
produced is exactly the same. In the
instance of seals being molded into a
product as one process, this would have the
major benefit of being certain that there
will never be a seal missing |
|
|
.Reduced cycle times
|
– Two Shot Molding
incorporates both phases of component
production into a single cycle with a very
short break when the tool repositions. This
means that complete parts can be produced in
as short a time as possible |
|
|
.
Improved bonding |
– By molding the two
parts of the component in compatible
materials a very strong bond is created
between the two parts. This insures a good
quality product that will be much more
reliable in service
