Designed for customized parts processing
Reaction Injection Molding (RIM, a.k.a. Low-pressure casting) typically involves injecting PU (polyurethane) material into a mold under low pressure, where it forms the desired product through a chemical reaction. This process is ideal for producing medium to high volumes of complex products, offering low costs, material versatility, high strength, and cost efficiency. It is suitable for both plastic and metal components.
Key Features:
⚡ Ability to Produce Complex Shapes: Capable of manufacturing products with intricate internal structures and fine appearances, such as automotive parts with detailed designs.
⚡ Cost-Effective for Medium-Volume Production: Especially beneficial for small to medium batch production. For example, compared to some large-scale manufacturing methods, low-pressure casting is more cost-efficient for medium-to-high volume production, such as in electronic housings.
⚡ Material Versatility: A wide range of materials can be used based on performance requirements, allowing flexibility in product design and application.
Overall, RIM is widely applied in mold manufacturing, automotive, electronics, and medical fields, offering a reliable and versatile production method.
Scope of Services
