Some main information about the leg recess mould.

1). Leg recess plastic material.

Leg recess part need to do painting on the part surface. In this case, leg recess mould need to be polished smoothly.

2). Leg recess plastic material shrinkage rate.

Mould design have to be included shrinkage rate. ABS material mould normally shrinkage rate is 0.5%. But according client’s request, we design the mould with 0.6% shrinkage rate.

3). Leg recess part design.

The first design version from client. We arrange DFM analysis, and improve the part design according the DFM report.

4). Leg recess DFM report.

Leg recess 3D design improved acccording DFM report. DFM report is a very important technical assistance to improve the 3D part design, by this way can avoid the problem happened on the mould.

5). Leg recess mould design.

Before start to make the mould design, need to collect some information from client. Such as customer’s ABS material shrinkage rate, injection machine specification, and other requirement (for example, shot counter, etc.). Injection machine specification like the below pictures.

Once leg recess mould design confirmed by customer, we can go the machining for the mould.

6). Leg recess mould steel.

Leg recess mould steel

“Use the best mateiral at the key point”, this is what people often say. Leg recess mould steel is P20, prehardened. It’s hardness about 26-32HRC. This hardness is good enough for scooter part moulds.

7). Leg recess mould runner system.

Leg recess mould is two points big gate hot runner system.

Because leg recess part is big, one point hot runner is not enough to full filling during injection. So 2 points is required.

8). Leg recess mould toolings.

Mould quality good or bad, not only depends the mould steel, but also the machining process. We use high speed cnc milling tooling and high precision EDM for this mould final tooling. Good tooling make this mould finished like an artwork. Other tooling process is same like other normal mould. Below video is normal cnc milling tooling for the rough tooling.

9). Leg recess mould test.

Mould tested with ABS black colour. Many motorcycle this part finished with black colour, though need to do painting. Also this is requested by client. Doing our best to help client growing up, we grow up at sametime.
