Some Insights into Mould Manufacturers and Their Processes

(Posted from www.injectionmouldchina.com)

by Chris Devers

Using of plastic is common in these days and you can’t say that plastic does not have any importance in our life. The only thing you can say that, we can’t spend even a single day without using plastic products. This becomes possible due to the advanced recycling technology. But, what makes plastic looks in different shape and size? The answer is the moulding process. All mould manufacturers uses this process, where plastic is shaped with the help of a rigid frame which is known as mould. With this technique, it becomes possible to create objects of different shapes and sizes. It is also possible to create complex designs by using this process. The moulding parts are used to create voluminous items and parts of automobiles and vehicles.

Plastic injection moulding techniques have become quite popular and there are reliable methods for getting high quality mould products. Moulding method is the most important method and is considered as one of the finest techniques for a number of reasons. Some of the reasons are as follows.

* This is a convenient technology and can be controlled with ease and the possibility of mistakes is less. Injection moulding technique provides the high quality of products and can be churned out very fast and very conveniently.
* Pre-form mould manufacturers enjoy several cost advantages when they use injection moulding technique. The amount of wastage is very low. This procedure saves a lot of resources and enjoys certain cost benefits which can be passed on to the clients.
* Injection moulding process ensures efficiency to the manufacturer. There is minimum chance of getting defective product. The pre-form mold manufacturer ensures better quality of product to their clients and gets greater faith and reliance in this form of moulding.
* Commercial clients get their interest for plastic products made using injection moulding technology. Such products can be relied upon as they are more stable and durable. The demand of these moulded made products is quite high in the market. Due to the less wastage products, the traders get huge cost advantages.
* After the introduction of this process, it becomes possible for the clients to get their orders earlier than ever. The process of fast production also increases the client value in the market.

(Posted from www.injectionmouldchina.com)

by xiaming

The growing popularity of bronze sculptures, handmade with all the charms of antiquity and uniqueness are durable art pieces. Different shapes both contemporary and traditional portrayal of animals, nature, and wall- art and cast bronze decorative artifacts are in demand.

Collectors sculptures have a varied collection of artifacts, collected over a period of time while the Internet stores have made browsing and ordering bronze sculptures easy and fun.

The growing popularity of bronze sculptures, handmade with all the charms of antiquity and uniqueness are durable art pieces. Different shapes both contemporary and traditional portrayal of animals, nature, and wall- art and cast bronze decorative artifacts are in demand. It is said sculpting with this metal originated in China and carried forward by Greek sculptors while the Egyptians used to make small statutes and Greeks made life like statutes, decorative art, vessels and weapons.

As an alloy of copper and tin, it is harder than copper, durable, resistant to corrosion and melts easily. Historical facts state that due to wars and intense looting from the defeated kingdoms, huge amounts of bronze statues and artifacts were taken away, melted to make arms or statues by the victorious army. The sculptures of the Greek periods are very rare as the artifacts were melted down for other purposes.

However, it has always remained the popular metal as far as decorative statutes, candle stands and sculpture are created. It may be hammered, cast and carved with equal ease while it flows uniformly into a mold when heated under optimum temperatures. The outdoor decorative statues are usually preferred to be crafted in bronze due to durability, withstand extreme temperatures and have anti rust features.

To judge the superiority of a bronze sculpture may be based on the process used to create the art work and the skill of the artist. The theme can vary from wildlife, historic scenes to simple depiction of everyday life. The flow, finish and look depend on the inherent taste and experience of the artist. Sculptures can range in size and bulk depending upon your requirements.

Bronze sculptures are often copied or cast as poor fakes, so better beware of impersonators and buy from reputed sources. There are many artists and importers of bronze carvings who are professionals in their field. With high reliability and good customer policies, internet stores selling bronze statutes and sculptures are a good way to add to your collection exquisite pieces from different parts of the world.

The work and theme on sculptures differ from artist to artist and from country to country. Each country has its own designs, traditional arts and bronze sculptures and castings vary according to regions. Collectors sculptures have a varied collection of artifacts, collected over a period of time while the Internet stores have made browsing and ordering bronze sculptures easy and fun.

076/365 – Tools for the Young Artist

Image by djwtwo

Just some colored pencils that were part of Thing Two’s Christmas present for Thing One this year. These came in a nice wooden carrying case, along with pastels, watercolors, and a few other tools. I had originally planned to try and take a photo of them in the case, but there are some labels on the molded tray that aren’t that attractive but which I didn’t want to remove. Opted for this instead, a simple arrangement, almost in ROY G. BIV order. They’re sitting on a piece of thin clear plastic on top of black foam core board. Light is a CFL in a reflector to camera right, a little in front of the pencils and at about the same height to get light underneath the tips for good reflections, with me holding a sheet pan as a reflector to fill in some shadows above.

Did a little tweaking in Aperture, mostly to clone out a few dust specks here and there and to reduce some slight mottling visible in the foam core board. Cropped it a hair, too.

A test piece made last year, using iron to dye the bio-paper black. the sheet was then wet-molded around a cup to dry… which required re-wetting to actually remove! now it is rock hard.

further tests will be done with this method once stronger one-time molds can be found. the shrinking of the drying paper is too strong for other temporary molds and tends to crack or shatter them.

by dcmaster

Plastic injection moulding has enabled manufacturing and production processes to go faster and made mass production of items highly plausible at a lower cost. To experience those benefits, businesses are encouraged to work only with reputable plastic injection moulding companies in China. Finding the right companies should not be challenging as long as you understand the Chinese plastic injection moulding industry, compare service providers, and take time to find feedback on their customer service and the quality of their products. Here are some tips to help you find and choose the best plastic injection moulding company in China:

* Verify the company’s experience in mould making – Narrow your selection of plastic injection moulding companies in China to include only those that have been in business for at least a decade. Their years of experience should be a good indicator of their commitment to the manufacturing industry and to serving their clients well, or they would not have lasted that long. Being in the business for that long should have enabled the plastic injection moulding company to make connections with a wide array of businesses from various industries, too.

* Find out what other customers think of their service and products – To gain confidence in the company’s reputation and years in the business, look up reviews and feedback about them. Ask for references and consider companies that have worked with well-known brands. For instance, one of the highly-rated plastic injection moulding companies in China has experience in producing parts for Canon, Volkswagen, Brother, Xiaomi, and Toyota.

* Find out how they work – Established and reputed plastic injection moulding companies in China follow a chain of stringent quality management standards to ensure high-quality products. Steps include pre- and post-measures, which help shorten the tooling and moulding processes. This way, the company is able to deliver results ahead of the deadline to keep you a step ahead of your competition. Consider the types of plastic injection moulding services they offer, too. Leading providers are well-appointed and employ highly skilled and trained specialists to conduct double-shot or over-mould, high precision, insert injection, gas-assisted injection moulding, and thin-wall injection moulding.

* Determine how you can get in touch with them – Make sure they have reliable professional sales and engineering teams, which you can easily contact for assistance and for inquiries.
