Customized EPS Moulds For Precise And Consistent Foam Product Dimensions
Product Description
EPS molds are used to create custom-shaped expanded polystyrene foam products. The mold design and manufacturing process is crucial for producing high-quality EPS parts. Here are some key aspects to consider:
Mold Materials:
The mold material must be able to withstand the heat and pressure of the EPS expansion process.
Mold Cavity Design:
Draft angles, ejection mechanisms, and parting line placement are critical for part removal and dimensional accuracy.
Multi-cavity molds allow for higher production volumes in a single cycle.
Bead Fusion:
The EPS beads must properly fuse together within the mold to create a cohesive, structural part.
Bead size, density, and fusion properties affect the mold design and expansion process parameters.
Improper bead fusion can lead to weak points or voids in the final EPS product.
Manufacturability:
Cycle time, demolding, post-processing, and packaging needs must be considered for efficient, high-volume production.
Mold cooling, heating, and automation features impact the overall manufacturing process.
