Metal stamping dies and plastic processing dies are widely used in industrial production. For the difference between them, many people will say that metal stamping dies are made of hardware and plastic processing dies are made of plastic. So which industry are they mainly widely used in?
1. In industrial production, metal stamping dies are used to make metal materials into parts or products with required shapes by using various presses and special tools installed on presses. These special tools are collectively referred to as metal stamping dies, and the processed products are metal stamping parts.
2. Plastic processing mold is a combined plastic mold for compression molding, extrusion molding, injection molding, blow molding, and low foaming molding. It mainly includes female die with variable cavity composed of female die combined base plate, female die assembly and female die combined clamping plate, and male die with a variable core composed of male die combined base plate, male die assembly, male die combined clamping plate, cavity cutting assembly and side cutting combined plate. Coordinated changes of punch, die, and auxiliary molding system. It can process a series of plastic parts of different shapes and sizes.
3. The essential difference between them is that hardware products are produced in the metal stamping die, and plastic products are produced in the plastic die, and the structure of the die is also different. The plastic die has a cooling system, but the hardware die does not. The molding principle of the product is also different. The plastic mold is cooled after injection molding, while the metal mold is cold-overstocked with standard thickness steel plate.
4. From the function of mold, hardware mold is a mass production tool for metal products. The materials it uses are generally iron, copper, or aluminum. Plastic mold is used for plastic products, and the raw materials used are also plastic raw materials.
