Features: This book primarily introduces design examples of molds for various formed plastic parts, including structurally functional and high-precision plastic components used in automotive, electrical, mechanical, optical, medical, and other fields, as well as some daily and office supplies. The forming materials used include not only thermoplastic and thermosetting plastics but also silicone rubber, elastomers, reinforced plastics, and injection molding materials that combine plastics with metals. The book covers various types of molds such as hot runner molds, cold runner molds, stack molds, large-scale molds, specially designed molds, and the selection of mold materials. It also includes modern technological advancements like gas-assisted injection, three-component injection, multi-position injection, and metal injection molding, totaling 130 examples. In each example, there are product diagrams or photos of actual parts, mold design drawings, and systematic explanations of the mold structure and operating sequence. This book is suitable for technical personnel engaged in the design and manufacturing of plastic injection molds, as well as serving as an excellent reference for students and faculty of relevant colleges and universities.
