Molding refers to the process of pouring melted resin into a metal mold or applying pressure to a powder to form it. Injection molding is a common method of manufacturing plastics, and injection molding equipment is available from various companies. A molding technology is also used in the manufacturing process of semiconductors to protect semiconductor chips, making it an indispensable technology in today's industry.
Moldings are used in a variety of industries, including plastic manufacturing sites, semiconductor manufacturing sites, and resin product manufacturing sites. Protective coatings on plastic bottles and semiconductor chips are the main destinations for moldings. When selecting equipment for molding, it is necessary to consider manufacturing speed, molding accuracy, power consumption, and the materials of molding that are supported. Especially for molding equipment used in the manufacturing process of precision equipment, its components, and semiconductors, it is necessary to select high-precision equipment.
The following is an explanation of the principle of operation of moldings, using injection moldings of plastic and semiconductor moldings as examples, which are the main applications of moldings.
