Our Thermoset Injection Molding Process
Thermoset resins are mixed with curing agents and other additives to prepare a uniform, flowable material for molding.
The prepared thermoset material is injected into a heated mold cavity under high pressure, filling the mold’s shape.
The mold is maintained at a specific temperature to initiate a chemical reaction, curing the thermoset material into a rigid, durable form.
After curing, the mold is cooled to solidify the part and maintain its shape and structural integrity.
Once it has cooled and hardened, the molded part is removed from the mold using mechanical ejectors.
Any excess material or flash is trimmed, and the part is inspected for quality, fit, and finish.
