Why is the processing speed of this process goal important in injection molding, because it not only relates to the processing cycle of the part, but also determines the economic cost of processing. We often say that the EDM processing speed refers to the certain mass and volume that the workpiece is etched away in the same unit time under the condition of certain pulse parameters, which can be expressed by volume processing speed or mass processing speed respectively.
Plastic mold mirror polishing
On the same surface roughness of the mold steel, the maximum processing speed of the relative electric pulse at the time of electrode loss is an important target for measuring the function of electric pulse processing and machine tool. In general, the manufacturer gives the maximum processing current and the highest processing speed that can be reached under optimal processing conditions. Therefore, when we practice machining, due to the ever-changing scale and shape of the workpiece, the machining conditions and the chip removal conditions are different from the aspiration conditions. Even in the roughing of the machining center, the machining speed is often much lower than the maximum machining speed of the machine tool. .
Each injection processing pulse discharge will leave a tiny pit on the surface of the workpiece. The size of the pit and the amount of erosion data are approximately proportional to the pulse energy, that is, the larger the pulse energy, the heat transferred to the workpiece. The more you will be, the more information will be erased. In theory, the speed of EDM is proportional to the single pulse energy and discharge frequency, but in practice, the effect of a single pulse is not manifested alone, but the result of multiple pulses together, the pulse power is continuous The process of transferring energy to the machining gap in a pulse condition is much more complicated. The processing speed is a multivariate function related to the pulse discharge timing, the pulse interval, the pulse discharge current, the pulse waveform, the processing target function, the electrode data, the chip removal condition, and the like.
Processing speed is very important in mold injection molding. Because this is a prerequisite for the production of plastic products. If the customer asks for a good quality based on the early delivery, the processing time and speed are the most important.
The quality of plastic molds includes the following aspects:
(1) Product quality: the stability and conformity of the product scale, the smoothness of the surface of the product, the utilization rate of the product information, etc.;
(2) Service life: the number of work cycles or the number of parts produced by the mold under the premise of ensuring the quality of the product;
(3) Application and maintenance of the mold: whether it is the most convenient to use, the demoulding is simple, and the production time is as short as possible;
(4) Repairing the cost, repairing the periodicity, and so on.
The fundamental way to advance mold quality: mold planning is the most important step in the quality of the forward mold. Many factors need to be considered, including the selection of mold materials, the usability and safety of the mold structure, the machinability of mold parts and the mold. The convenience of repairing should be considered as much as possible at the beginning of planning. The manufacturing process of the mold is also an important part of ensuring the quality of the mold. The processing method and processing precision in the mold manufacturing process also affect the service life of the mold. The accuracy of each component directly affects the overall installation of the mold. In addition to the influence of the accuracy of the equipment itself, it is necessary to improve the machining accuracy of the mold parts by improving the machining method of the parts and the skill level of the fitter in the mold grinding process. Surface strengthening of the primary molded part of the mold to advance the surface wear resistance of the mold part, and then better advance the mold quality. The correct use and maintenance of the mold is also a major factor in the quality of the forward mold.
For example, the equipment debugging mode of the mold should be appropriate. In the case of warm flow channels, the power supply wiring should be correct, the cooling water circuit should be satisfactory to the planning requirements, and the parameters of the injection molding machine, die casting machine and press in the production of the mold should be consistent with the planning requirements. and many more. When the mold is used correctly, the mold needs to be maintained in a punctual manner. The guide post, guide sleeve and other parts with relative motion of the mold should be filled with lubricating oil frequently. For the molds such as forging die, plastic die and die-casting die, A lubricant or mold release agent should be applied to the surface of the formed part before each molding.
With the development of society, the quality of molds has been paid more and more attention. With the improvement of planning and manufacturing molds, the realization of new mold skills, mold quality has received more and more attention. Quality is a frequently-changed topic, and quality is moving along with the mold skills.
Modern industry's requirements for injection molded parts not only require high precision, but also have excellent connotation quality. In order to get used to this requirement, it is necessary to develop new technology for injection molds. Now, in the southern coastal areas, the injection molds imported from abroad are being gradually promoted. The new technology has played a big role in improving the quality of injection molded parts. In the past few decades, the domestic plastic mold work has developed rapidly, and the craving and demand for talents has become higher and higher. However, the country still cannot solve this thorny problem and has become the primary obstacle to the development of China's mold work.
It is understood that the mold production areas in the coastal areas have not been recruited to varying degrees. In order to attract talents, many local mold companies even recruit across regions and provinces. Three kinds of talents make up the mold work. “Golden collar” personnel are proficient in mold design software and common sense of mold structure, and have accumulated a lot of practical experience in practice. Such people are very suitable as technical directors or technical supervisors of various enterprises. “Grey collar” refers to the personnel who specially design and process the molds in the post. These people account for 15% of the enterprise mold technology positions. The “blue collar” refers to the technical staff who work as the mold for the specific operation and daily maintenance work in the production position, accounting for 75% of the corporate positions, which is the largest demand now. This has become a primary obstacle in the domestic mold industry. Strengthening the cultivation of professional talents has become an urgent matter for the mold industry.
Following the rapid development of plastic molds, according to the new model of injection mold manufacturing in the information age. The production power of injection mold work has greatly improved, and the impact on the manufacturing industry has a milestone impact. Due to the organic combination of information and manufacturing information related to the manufacturing activities of injection molds, the traditional manufacturing industry has been rapidly developed. This advantage has been greatly demonstrated and reflected in the information age. The modern manufacturing process can be seen as the value-added process of the amount of information contained in raw materials, and the driving of industrial information flow will become the mainstream of the manufacturing industry.
Since injection molding products are widely used in daily life, mold technology has become an important indicator for measuring the manufacturing level of a country's products. In recent years, China's injection molds have developed rapidly in quality and quantity, but compared with foreign advanced technology, the technical level of most enterprises in China still needs to be improved. Now, compared with foreign advanced technology, China's injection mold work has the following problems: the contradiction between supply and demand is difficult to solve in the short term: the domestic market satisfaction rate of injection molds has been lacking 74%, and the satisfaction rate of large, fine and long-life molds is lower.
At present, molds in industrialized countries are accelerating their handling to China, and more and more world acquisitions are taking place. The market demand is strong, and it is difficult to keep up with the production. The situation of oversupply will continue for some time. Unbalanced industry development: Although the products of individual enterprises have reached or approached the world's advanced level, overall, the accuracy, production cycle, and service life of molds are still relatively different from those of foreign countries, and the overall level of industrial development is relatively low. .
What do you need to pay attention to in the production of plastic molds? The first thing to look at is the complexity of the structure of the mold. It takes about a month to open a plastic mold.

This paper analyzes how the plastic product mold reduces defects during processing, mainly from the following five aspects.
1. Reasonably use the cooling lubricant to play the three functions of cooling, washing and lubrication, keep the cooling and lubrication clean, and control the grinding heat within the allowable range to prevent the workpiece from being thermally deformed. Improve the cooling conditions during grinding, such as the use of oil-impregnated grinding wheels or internal cooling wheels. The cutting fluid is introduced into the center of the grinding wheel, and the cutting fluid can directly enter the grinding zone to exert an effective cooling effect to prevent the surface of the workpiece from being burned.
2. The quenching stress after heat treatment is reduced to a minimum, because the quenching stress and the reticulated carbonized structure under the action of the grinding force, the phase change of the structure is extremely easy to cause cracks in the workpiece. For high-precision molds, in order to eliminate the residual stress of grinding, low-temperature aging treatment should be performed after grinding to improve the toughness.
3, eliminate the grinding stress can also be immersed in the 260 ~ 315 ° C salt bath for 1.5min, and then cooled in 30 ° C oil, so the hardness can be reduced by 1HRC, residual stress reduced by 40% ~ 65%.
4. For precision grinding of precision molds with a dimensional tolerance of less than 0.01 mm, attention should be paid to the influence of ambient temperature, and constant temperature grinding is required. It can be seen from the calculation that for a steel piece with a length of 300 mm, the material has a change of about 10.8 μm at a temperature difference of 3 ° C (10.8 = 1.2 × 3 × 3, and the deformation amount per 100 mm is 1.2 μm / ° C), and each finishing process needs to be fully considered. The impact of this factor.
5, using electrolytic grinding processing to improve mold manufacturing accuracy and surface quality. In electrolytic grinding, the grinding wheel scrapes off the oxide film: instead of grinding the metal, the grinding force is small, the grinding heat is small, and no grinding burrs, cracks, burns, etc. occur, and the surface roughness is generally better than Ra0. .16μm; In addition, the wear of the grinding wheel is small, such as grinding cemented carbide, the wear of the silicon carbide grinding wheel is about 400% to 600% of the weight of the hardened carbide. When grinding with electrolytic grinding, the wear of the grinding wheel The amount is only 50% to 100% of the amount of cemented carbide.
Nowadays, the use of extruded plastic molds is also very common. If you do not notice the quality problem at the time of selection, then the later stage will seriously affect the normal use. Today, I will tell you how to judge the quality of plastic molds.
First, we must look at the thickness of this mold when choosing, although the mold does not need to use too much force, or other harsh environment, but due to the phenomenon of mold and demoulding often encountered, the plastic mold will be very Easy, problems such as loss, deformation, etc. The basis for solving these problems is to widen the thickness of the mold. Therefore, in the process of selecting the mold, we can analyze the quality of the mold from the thickness.
Second, look at the specifications of the extrusion die, the good mold can control the size of the extruded plastic products produced in the error of a few millimeters, and the inferior mold often produces a product error of several millimeters or even A few centimeters.
Third, look at the material and workmanship of the entire mold, good mold should be very smooth inside and outside, look shiny, and feels slightly moist, hand inferior mold may have burrs or pits on the surface, the two It is to stand tall.
Mold cleaning is a key process in mold maintenance and maintenance, and it is also a bottleneck restricting mold maintenance. Because the speed of mold manufacturing is much faster than the speed of mold cleaning, and the mold is quickly cleaned, it is ready for the next production, so the time left for mold cleaning is quite limited. How to clean the mold?
1. Standardized cleaning procedure
Systematic mold maintenance is based on maintenance requirements and consistency of maintenance operations. In order to achieve the "cost-effective" goal, cleaning molds must be careful: develop a detailed mold cleaning program. When cleaning different parts of the mold, such as internal cleaning of the press, wiping along the edge, regular cleaning, and main cleaning, the cleaning operation method is also different.
After a certain period of operation of the mold and after visual inspection of plating wear, track marks, and mold residue content in the venting and non-venting areas, the technician can determine the procedure and frequency of mold cleaning by visual inspection. Therefore, it is important to understand the cycle of safe operation of the mold and to document the observations of residue accumulation and wear inside the mold.
Based on the mold having a certain operating cycle, all molds should be accompanied by documentation of the relevant maintenance procedures and maintenance intervals. In general, controlling the internal grease level and gear broaching, sliders, internal shaft pins and bushings, and other moving parts are key to ensuring stable production. Other factors affecting production include contamination or blockage of the waterline and sprinklers, leakage of manifolds, rust and corrosion due to water leakage or condensation.
2. What level of cleaning is enough
Usually, when the molding process is completed, dirt or residue is often left on the mold, and the final cleaning requirements are different for different kinds of residues. Resins such as polyvinyl chloride produce hydrogen chloride gas, which can corrode many types of die steel. Some other residues are separated from the flame retardant and the antioxidant, which can cause corrosion to the steel. There are also some pigment colorants that can rust the steel and the rust is difficult to remove. Even ordinary sealed water, if placed on the surface of an untreated mold for a long time, will also cause damage to the mold.
Therefore, the mold should be cleaned as necessary according to the established production cycle. Each time the mold is removed from the press, it is first necessary to open the mold vents to remove all oxidized dirt and rust from the mold and non-critical areas of the stencil to prevent it from slowly corroding the steel surface and edges. In many cases, even if the cleaning is completed, some uncoated or rust-prone mold surfaces will soon appear rust again. Therefore, even if it takes a long time to brush the unprotected mold, the surface rust cannot be completely avoided.
Many molds now have "self-cleaning" vent lines that have a high gloss. By rinsing and polishing the vents to the degree of polishing of SPI#A3, or by milling or grinding, the residue is discharged to the waste area of the vent line to prevent residue from adhering to the surface of the roughing stand. . However, if the operator uses a coarse brushing pad, emery cloth, sandpaper, grindstone or a brush with nylon bristles, brass or steel to manually grind the mold, it will cause excessive cleaning of the mold.
In general, when the surface of the mold is subjected to high-pressure pulverization cleaning using hard plastics, glass beads, walnut shells, and aluminum pellets as an abrasive, if the abrasive is used too frequently or improperly used, the polishing method also causes The surface of the mold is filled with voids, and it is easy for the residue to adhere to it, resulting in more residue, abrasion, or premature rupture or burrs of the mold, which is more detrimental to the cleaning of the mold.
Therefore, by finding a cleaning device suitable for the mold and the processing process, and referring to the cleaning method and the cleaning cycle recorded in the archive document, the maintenance time can be saved, and at the same time, the wear of the mold can be effectively reduced.
(1) Product quality: the stability and conformity of the product size, the smoothness of the surface of the product, the utilization rate of the product materials, etc.;
(2) Service life: the number of work cycles or the number of parts produced by the mold under the premise of ensuring the quality of the product;
(3) Maintenance and maintenance of the mold: whether it is the most convenient to use, easy to demould, and the production auxiliary time is as short as possible;
(4) Maintenance costs, maintenance periodicity, etc.
The basic way to improve the quality of the mold: the design of the mold is the most important step to improve the quality of the mold. Many factors need to be considered, including the selection of the mold material, the usability and safety of the mold structure, the machinability of the mold parts and the mold. The convenience of maintenance, these should be considered as thoughtfully at the beginning of the design. The manufacturing process of the mold is also an important part of ensuring the quality of the mold. The processing method and processing precision in the mold manufacturing process also affect the service life of the mold. The accuracy of each component directly affects the overall assembly of the mold. In addition to the influence of the accuracy of the equipment itself, it is necessary to improve the machining accuracy of the mold parts by improving the machining method of the parts and improving the technical level of the fitter in the mold grinding process. . Surface strengthening of the main forming parts of the mold to improve the surface wear resistance of the mold parts, thereby improving the quality of the mold. The correct use and maintenance of the mold is also a major factor in improving the quality of the mold.
For example, the installation and debugging mode of the mold should be appropriate. In the case of hot runners, the power supply wiring should be correct, and the cooling water circuit should meet the design requirements. The parameters of the injection molding machine, die casting machine and press in the production of the mold should be consistent with the design requirements. and many more. When the mold is used correctly, the mold needs to be regularly maintained. The guide post, guide sleeve and other parts with relative movement of the mold should be filled with lubricating oil. For each of the forging mold, plastic mold and die-casting mold, A lubricant or mold release agent should be applied to the surface of the molded part before molding.
With the development of society, the quality of molds has received more and more attention. With the enhancement of design and manufacturing molds and the realization of new mold technologies, mold quality has received more and more attention. Quality is a frequently-changed topic, and quality is improving as mold technology improves.
The design of plastic forming mold has many external constraints, complex and flexible structure, and the experience and exploratory characteristics. There are many contents to be analyzed and discussed in the mold design. If the design procedure is not reasonable or imperfect, it will affect the mold. The quality of the design. To this end, it is necessary to standardize and improve the plastic molding mold design process. In general, designing plastic molding dies can be divided into three main stages.
(1) Discussion stage This stage is mainly the preparation stage of the design work. It comprehensively grasps the plastic parts drawings and technical requirements provided, collects relevant technical materials, and explores the technical measures to meet the requirements. Make necessary modifications to the plastic parts or technical requirements if necessary.
(2) Concept stage This stage is based on the requirements of the previous stage and the relevant technical data and technical measures collected to propose design ideas for the main parts of the mold, and how to fit in the design of the main parts of the mold. Existing processing equipment and technology, and how to ensure mold processing quality, speed up molding and improve economic efficiency.
(3) Design phase This phase is mainly to implement the completed concept. The general assembly drawing of the plastic molding die and the drawing of each component are given, and the standard parts, the modified standard parts and the mold material plan to be used are proposed.
