Why Choose Plastic Injection Molding Technology for Electronic Injection Molding?
Electronic injection molding involves converting plastic raw materials (in pellet or granular form) into molded electronic parts. During this process, an injection molding machine melts the plastic material and injects it into a pre-designed mold. After cooling, the plastic part is demolded from the mold for further processing or direct use.
The process is used to manufacture electronic products due to its many advantages, including:
Cost-effective. While the initial cost of electronic injection molding may be high, its material price is generally much lower than other production methods. The process is especially cost-effective when producing electronic parts in large quantities.
Improved consistency. Electronic injection molding improves consistency between parts and between different production batches.
Material Diversity. Using plastics for electronic injection molding provides industry professionals with a wide range of material options. The process is compatible with plastics in a wide range of colors, formulations, and surface treatments to meet different production needs, such as conductive and non-conductive, flexible and rigid, UV-resistant, waterproof, and more.
Types of Injection Molded Electronic Components We Produce
Electronic injection molding is used to manufacture components for a variety of applications. Common applications for injection molded electronics include:
- Housings and Enclosures. Injection molding can be used to produce housings and enclosures used to protect sensitive electronic components (relays, sensors, switches, buttons, etc.) and prevent electric shock.
- Electronic Connectors. Electrical connectors are essential for establishing connections between electronic circuits. These components can be produced through injection molding, overmolding, and insert molding.
- Meters, Sensors, and Other Test Equipment. Meters, sensors, and industrial test equipment are essential to the electronics industry. Various injection molding techniques, such as overmolding and insert molding, can help achieve the tight tolerances required for these components.
- Telecommunications Components. Injection molding can produce complex shapes accurately and consistently. This makes it ideal for producing telecommunications components, such as electrical insulation covers, housings, buttons, connectors, mounting brackets, routers, switches, and more.
- Semiconductor processing equipment. Plastic injection molding can produce semiconductor components and devices that meet tight tolerances and have high dimensional accuracy.
