Insert Injection Molding
Insert Molding, Mold In Injection Molding,OverMolding
Insert Injection Molding could be called Insert Molding or Over Molding, which a sole part is formed using two or more different materials in combination. In Insert injection Molding can either be incorporated at the time of the molding process or can be inserted as post molding operation.
Especially, if properly selected two kinds of material, it will obtain a strong bonding of the molded part. Therefore, the used of primers or adhesive was no longer required to achieve an optimum bond between two materials.
This process of insert injection molding results in a strong bonded and integrated assembly with plastic encapsulated inserts.Insert molding made from the following material :Ceramic、Plastic、Metal and The substance that can withstand the high temperature of injection molding process.
What industries commonly use insert molded parts?
Insert molding is commonly used in a broad range of industries, including medical, automotive, consumer products and electronic components. Common applications include electronic housings, knobs and dials and hand-held devices.
Foreshot according product requirements and design, through Insert Molding combines metal and plastics, or multiple combinations of materials and components into a single unit, this feature let customer enhanced design flexibility, such as Electronic Components、Precision Components、Vehicle Accessories and Medical Appliances and Accessories etc.

Differences in the process between Insert Injection Molding and Conventional Injection Molding.
Conventional Injection Molding | Insert Injection Molding | |
---|---|---|
Materials | Metal and plastic boxes | |
Tolerance | Not strict | Stringent |
Design Difficulty | Need to consider the components and assembly gap | The number of combined features needs to be considered |
Design time | Longer | Short |
Mold Making | Low precision (low cost) | High precision (high cost) |
Assembly steps | Subsequent manual assembly | No post processing required |
Assembly issues | Having foreign components and scratches problems | No foreign components and scratches problems |
