Revolutionizing the Industry with Metal Injection Molding: Exploring the Benefits of the Epic Flash Hybrid Molding Process

When it comes to metal injection molding, the industry is always looking to innovate and improve the process. One such improvement is in the form of the Epic Flash Hybrid Molding Process, which has been touted as a gamechanger in the industry. In this blog post, we will explore the benefits of this molding process and explain why it's revolutionizing the industry.

The Epic Flash Hybrid Molding Process is a combination of the traditional metal injection molding process and a newer technology - plastic injection molding. This hybrid process combines the strengths of both methods to create a more efficient and effective molding process.

One of the key benefits of Epic Flash Hybrid Molding is speed. The plastic injection molding component of the process can fill the mold much quicker than the traditional metal injection molding process. This leads to a much faster overall cycle time and increased productivity.

Another benefit of the Epic Flash Hybrid Molding Process is the ability to create more complex parts with tighter tolerances. The plastic injection molding component of the process allows for more intricate and detailed parts to be created with minimal defects. This is crucial in industries where precision is of the utmost importance.

The final benefit we'll explore is cost savings. The Epic Flash Hybrid Molding Process can save companies money in multiple ways. Firstly, the quicker cycle time means that parts can be produced faster, which leads to increased output and revenue. Secondly, the more precise molding process means there are fewer mistakes and less wasted material. This ultimately leads to lower costs for both the manufacturer and the end consumer.

In conclusion, the Epic Flash Hybrid Molding Process is a gamechanger in the metal injection molding industry. Its combination of plastic and metal injection molding creates a more efficient and effective molding process that can produce more intricate and detailed parts with tighter tolerances. With its numerous benefits, it's no wonder that more and more manufacturers are turning to this innovative process.

Our rapid injection molding Application

Sigma Technik Limited's rapid injection molding service injects molten plastic materials into molds using injection molding machines and molds, and cools and solidifies them over a certain period of time, ultimately forming the required plastic parts. This manufacturing process is usually suitable for producing small and medium-sized plastic parts, which can obtain high-quality and precise parts in a short period of time.

Plastic Injection Molding

Injection molding is a common manufacturing process to produce low volume to large volumes of parts typically made out of plastic. The process involves injecting molten material into a mold and letting it cool to a solid-state.

Liquid Silicone Rubber Molding

Liquid Silicone Rubber is known as LSR, which is a process used to produce parts made from silicone rubber, widely used create products such as medical devices, automotive parts, baby care products, and many others.

2K Injection molding

2K injection molding is a manufacturing process in which two different types of plastic materials are molded together in a single operation to create a single homogeneous component. This process allows for efficient and cost-effective production of high-quality parts that can perform unique functions.

Overmolding and Insert Molding

Overmolding / Insert molding combines two or more materials into a single part, one of the material is usually soft and flexible, or metal. The purpose of overmolding/insert molding is to add functionality, improve grip, provide protection, or enhance aesthetics.

Rapid Injection Molding FAQs

Burrs appear on the surface of the product, which affects its aesthetics and safety. The solution can be to adjust the parameters of the injection molding machine, such as temperature, pressure, speed, etc., or to perform post-processing, such as polishing, sandblasting, etc.

The warping deformation of the product is usually caused by unstable parameters such as temperature and pressure of the injection molding machine, or improper mold design. The solution can be to adjust parameters such as temperature and pressure, or to redesign the mold.

The occurrence of bubbles inside the product may be due to the high temperature of the injection molding machine and the high moisture content of the material. The solution can be to reduce the temperature of the injection molding machine, adjust the water content of the material, increase the pressure of the injection molding machine, etc.

The product size deviation is too large, which may be caused by material thermal expansion, mold deformation and other reasons. The solution can be to adjust parameters and optimize mold design based on material characteristics.
