Today's competitive business climate requires a tighter control
on costs than ever before, and the use of aluminum in injection
molding tooling is one effective method of helping to control your
company's production costs.
Aluminum offers a variety of advantages, including:
-
Lower manufacturing costs, because it's easier and quicker
to machine and does not require heat treating and grinding
-
Ease of modification after the tool is built
-
More options and savings for customers because the mold can
be built with interchangeable inserts and cores
-
Higher temperature transfer rates, which mean even cooling
without water lines - a mold without water lines allows more
flexibility for future modifications
Injection molding tooling made from aluminum, which falls under
SPI Classification 104, is particularly well suited for short- to
limited-run products.
But customers requiring longer product runs also can take advantage
of aluminum tooling. Steel inserts can help extend the life of aluminum
molds when a part requires longer production cycles or abrasive
materials.
