Insert molding is a great option for creating a variety of effects
during the custom injection molding process.
In the hands of an experienced manufacturer, insert molding can
move beyond the placement of a simple threaded component to include
applications as varied as:
-
Overmolding softer plastic materials on metal handles to increase
user comfort
-
Creating internal stiffness for torque purposes in a plastic
product
-
Accurately placing more than a dozen components in one part
-
Incorporating 3-foot-long rods into a plastic part
-
Precisely aligning .015-inch-wide needles in a delicate plastic
piece
-
Integrating a specially formulated label into the wall of a
plastic product
-
Overmolding bearings with plastic
-
Incorporating different plastic materials, screens, brass,
even rocks, into a plastic part
An injection molder that specializes in insert molding can help
ensure that the part turns out the way the designer intended, particularly
because certain materials, say the solder in electronics or plastics
with particularly low melt points, simply don't lend themselves
to insert molding.
In the end, insert molding is limited simply by the creativity of
the part designer - and the budget of his employer.
