Injection mold cleaning can reduce part defects and improve cycle times. If injection molds aren’t cleaned properly, however, residual materials can cause part discoloration and require rework. If the cooling channels of an injection mold become clogged, slower cooling rates may result. Over high volumes of molded plastic or rubber parts, even seconds of longer […]
Batch Deflashing to Remove Mold Flashing We often hear from molders and OEMs that they have mold flashing after their injection molded plastic and rubber parts are manufactured. There are many ways for mold flashing to form on your parts during the injection molding process. Surfaces where sliding and moving parts meet will wear with […]
Injection molds that are cleaned with dry ice blasting are helping plastic and rubber molders to reduce costs and improve quality. Injection mold cleaning with dry ice removes surface residues without creating secondary waste. It also eliminates time-consuming scrubbing and won’t harm mold surfaces. Importantly, injection mold cleaning allows operators to clean molds that are […]
