Exploring Major Drawbacks of Structural Foam
Molding

  • In a world full of technology, manufacturing
    plastic parts has become quite easy and simple.
    We have a lot of alternatives to choose from, and
    it ultimately helps us earn good profits. Coming
    to the point, we are here talking about hiring
    Structural Foam Molding Companies for the
    production of plastic products. No doubt that
    structural foam molding is the best alternative
    for producing lightweight plastic parts, but
    before hiring Structural Foam Molding Companies,
    you must know this method has some drawbacks too.

  • Ahead in this blog, we have explained the
    structural foam molding process. Along with that,
    we have also mentioned the major drawbacks of
    this method. So, if you are serving in the field
    of manufacturing plastic products, then continue
    reading this blog to find out whether you should
    opt for structural foam molding or not.
  • Structural Foam Molding Process Describing in
    simple terms, it is the process of injecting
    melted polymer into the metal molds, along with a
    chemical blowing agent or an inert gas. This is
    to get a foam-like structure in the core of the
    end products. Since the outer walls are thick and
    strong, theres no need to worry about the
    strength and stability. In most of the
    industries, low-pressure is used for the
    injection process. Due to the foam-like core, it
    is the first choice for manufacturing
    light-weight plastic parts.

  • Lets now have a look at the major drawbacks of
    building plastic products through structural
    foam.
  • Theres actually no significant drawbacks of
    structural foam molding, however, the only
    concern with the products built through this
    method are not as strong as the plastic products
    built through conventional injection molding. In
    short, the foam-like core structural helps to get
    a very good strength-to-weight ratio, but still,
    the end products are weaker than compared to
    solid plastic parts. On this note, if the
    lightweight is not your priority, then prefer
    normal injection molding instead of structural
    foam. You must consult with an experienced
    engineer of China Casting Orlando before making
    final decision.
