What preparations are needed before installing and debugging a plastic mold? plastic products processing

 

Installing and debugging a plastic mold is an important inspection process. It effectively identifies problems with the mold and the produced parts, allowing for targeted modifications to ensure the mold meets requirements. So, what preparations are needed before mold installation and debugging?

 

During the manufacturing process, pay attention to the personal safety of workers, ensuring the integrity of the mold and equipment to prevent damage. Ensure the machine's functions are under the control of the debugging personnel. Before installation is complete, turn off the power to necessary parts to prevent accidents. These are safety issues that need to be considered before and after mold installation.

 

Before installation and debugging, carefully review the mold assembly drawing, confirming all technical requirements. Understand the basic structure of the mold, the actions during processing, and any issues to be aware of.

 

After determining the overall height and dimensions of the mold, select an injection molding machine of appropriate size and plasticizing capacity to avoid mismatch between the mold and the injection molding machine, which could lead to surface defects in the plastic parts.

 

Check whether the pneumatic and hydraulic devices inside the mold are functioning properly, whether all structural components are complete, and whether valves and limit switches operate smoothly during operation to prevent mold failure or damage due to component malfunctions.
