Product Description
Insert molding is a process that involves an insert, typically metal, that is placed in the tool for injected plastic to flow around. Encapsulating the insert with plastic eliminates an assembly step to create a single molded plastic piece that's generally stronger and lower cost than one created using secondary assembly. The insert can be loaded into the mold manually or with automation, which minimizes human error, improves efficiencies, and ensures optimal cycle times.
main product | Insert molding and overmolding are two distinctly different processes that produce their own unique types of products. The overmolding process takes place when one material is overmolded over a second material. The base layer is molded first and the additional plastic layer(s) are molded over and around the original part. This results in a single finished product. Overmolding creates a strong finished product with long service life and enhanced safety features. Conversely, insert injection molding occurs when insert injection materials are injected into the mold cavity prior to plastic injection molding. The resulting product is a single piece with the insert encapsulated by the plastic. Plastic injection inserts provide a fast and cost-effective assembly process, producing parts with reduced size and weight. |
