What is mold ejection?
Mold ejection is the process of removing the molded plastic product from the mold. This process ensures that the product remains undamaged and has a complete shape and surface quality.

The lifespan of a plastic mold depends on usage frequency, material type, design, and maintenance. Generally, plastic molds can last from tens of thousands to millions of cycles, but proper maintenance is essential for prolonging their life.
Plastic mold maintenance includes regular cleaning, checking for wear and tear, inspecting the injection molding machine and cooling systems, and lubricating moving parts. Proper maintenance extends the mold's life and ensures stable production.
A mold trial refers to the initial test run of the mold after it has been completed. The trial checks the mold's precision, product size, quality, and production efficiency. If issues arise during the trial, adjustments will be made.The purpose is an important step to ensure that the final mold can produce a good product efficiently and stably.
The production cycle for a plastic mold typically ranges from a few weeks to several months, depending on the mold's complexity and customer requirements. Simple molds can be completed in 4-6 weeks, while more complex molds may take longer.
When designing plastic molds, several factors must be considered, including the complexity of the product structure, the difficulty of molding, the draft angle, and the design of the exhaust and cooling systems. In addition, the strength, stiffness and cost control of the mold are also crucial.
The plastic mold works by injecting molten plastic into a pre-designed cavity, where it cools and solidifies. The mold is then opened to remove the finished product. The process includes heating, injection, cooling, and ejection.
