Silicone mold used for Plastic hand sample film large product

The silicone mold plays an important role in the production of large-sized laminating products for plastic handboard samples.   Due to its short production cycle, silicone molds have become a common tool in small batch production and product prototype testing.

Silicone molds are often used for rapid sample production and are particularly suitable for the verification and adjustment stages in the early stages of product design to help customers get rapid feedback and optimization.

For large plastic Prototype, the life of the silicone mold is relatively short.   Under normal circumstances, a silicone mold in the production of 5 to 8 large products, there will be obvious wear.

Large products will bear greater pressure and friction during the molding process, which accelerates the aging of the mold, so the silicone mold is more suitable for the production of small batches or prototype samples.

For example, if you produce a plastic part with a larger appearance and more complex details, the mold may be slightly deformed or damaged after using 5 to 8 pieces, so it is not suitable for continued mass production.

Relatively speaking, when the silicone mold is used for small plastic hand samples, the life will be relatively extended.   In general, a silicone mold can support the production of 10 to 15 small products.   This is because small products are subjected to less pressure and friction during the production process, and the wear rate of the mold is slower, so more samples can be produced.

For some parts with small size and simple structure, the silicone mold can maintain a better condition for a longer time and support a higher number of small batch production.   Despite the relatively short life of silicone molds, there is no substitute for its advantages in rapid prototyping, product validation and small batch production.

In the process of rapid market feedback and multiple rounds of product adjustment, silicone molds can provide efficient solutions at a lower cost.
