What is ABS Injection Molding?

ABS injection molding is one of the most suitable manufacturing processes for ABS plastic products.  ABS is a durable and easy to process thermoplastic polymer material, ABS is acrylonitrile, 1, 3-butadiene, styrene terpolymer.  Injection molding is the melting and injection of ABS material into a prepared injection mold cavity.  Molten ABS cools and solidifies to form an injection mould-shaped ABS component.  ABS injection molding is fast and efficient for manufacturing a wide range of complex solid ABS parts with tight tolerances.  Injection molding technology enables mass production of ABS parts at a low cost.

The reasons of Using ABS in Injection Molding?

ABS material is veryproperties, The reasons as follows:  

ABS has reasonable production cost and beautiful structure.  

ABS material has a good finish after machining, polishing, painting, filling, etc. 

ABS has high strength, low melting temperature, high wear resistance, recyclability and good stability 

ABS is relatively easy to process and can be molded into a variety of shapes and sizes. 

The Advantages of ABS Injection Molding

Plastic Injection molding has many advantages as follows
High production efficiency

Injection molding is an efficient and high-yield manufacturing technology and is the best method for manufacturing ABS parts.  The power and strength of the Injection molding process ensure continuous, repeatable production performance,and limited waste, and can produce large numbers of ABS parts with limited human and machine interaction.  

Design of Complex Parts

Injection molding can produce multi-featured, complex components that can include metal inserts or overmolded soft-grip handholds. The complexity of the parts is only limited by a set of well-established design for manufacturing (DFM) guidelines developed specifically for injection molding. 

Variety of Applications

ABS plastic molding also ensures very versatile applications. This process is adapted to work with ABS resins of various sizes with excellent integration capabilities. This flexibility ensures the production of components for various industries.

Decreased Waste

Injection molding is inherently low-wastage production technology due to the large production volumes that injection molding was designed for. When millions of parts are made per year, any amount of wastage adds up to a significant cost over time. The only wastage is the material in the sprue, runners, and the flashing between mold halves.
