Brief description: - In-mold decorative insert technology is an internationally popular process that integrates injection molding and surface decoration. It has been in Europe and the United States for ten years. Since the early 1990s, it has developed from a double-layer film interlayer bonding structure to Injection molding is a three-dimensional molding technology with multiple structures. It changes the rigid model of flat panels and develops into a new model that combines film with printed graphics, logo ink and resin injection into a three-in-one panel. Currently, this new technology is widely used in the surface decoration of high-end products such as information communications, home appliances, electronics, computers, toys, soda cars, digital cameras, and cosmetic containers.
Since the product integrates decorative functionality, the graphics, text, and color of the injection molded part are formed at one time during in-mold injection molding, which reduces the number of post-processing steps. The previous production process was: raw material injection molding, packaging, transportation, skinning, processing, and punching Cut into shapes, packaged, stored and transported to the customer's factory. This method has a long production cycle, high manufacturing costs and lack of competition. It is difficult to make some complex products, resulting in low yield and high cost. After adopting the technology: raw materials, one-time injection molding products, punching and molding, packaging and transportation to customers. It can produce complex products with high yield, short cycle time, and reduced production costs. In addition, three-dimensional molding increases the freedom of design. The graphics, text, and colors are in the plastic interlayer, which is wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant, and the colors are bright and the printed patterns are Changes can be made at any time without changing molds. To sum up, technology not only improves the quality of products, but also broadens the space for continuous product innovation and enhances the added value of products. Therefore, it is a development project with great global potential.
