The difference between precision metal stamping molds and plastic processing molds

What is the difference between precision metal stamping molds and plastic processing molds? Many people may not be clear. They think that precision metal stamping molds are made of metal and plastic processing molds are made of plastic. Today, the metal stamping manufacturers will explain to you about metal stamping. The difference between mold and plastic processing mold.


The difference between precision metal stamping mold and plastic processing mold:


1. Precision hardware stamping dies are used in industrial production to use various presses and special tools installed on the press to make metal materials into parts or products of the required shape through pressure. These special tools are collectively referred to as hardware Stamping dies, the processed products are metal stamping parts.


2. Plastic processing mold is a combined plastic mold for compression molding, extrusion molding, injection, blow molding and low foam molding. It mainly includes a concave mold with a variable cavity composed of a female mold combined substrate, a female mold component and a female mold combined card board, and a convex mold combined substrate, a male mold component, a male mold combined card board, and a cavity cutting component A punch with a variable core composed of a side-cut combined board. Coordinated changes of mold convex, concave mold and auxiliary molding system. Series of plastic parts of different shapes and sizes can be processed.


3. The most essential difference between them is that the precision metal stamping mold produces hardware products, and the plastic mold produces plastic products, and the structure of the mold is different. The plastic mold has a cooling system, but the hardware mold does not. . The molding principle of the product is also different. The plastic mold is formed by cooling after injection, and the hardware mold is formed by cold backlogging of standard thickness steel plates.


4. From the perspective of the function of the mold, the hardware mold is a mass production tool for metal products. The materials used are generally iron, copper or aluminum. The plastic mold is made of plastic products, and the raw materials used are also Plastic raw materials.
