Rubber molding services provided by Team MFG

Rubber Injection Molding Service

Our rubber injection molding process utilizes a state-of-the-art hopper and heated barrel system. This method efficiently feeds uncured rubber, then pushes it through a plunger into a heated chamber, ensuring precise mold filling. Our process is designed to support a wide range of durometers and custom shapes, with an emphasis on reducing flash and ensuring quicker cycle times.
 
  • High-Volume and Low-Volume Capabilities: We are equipped to handle both high and low-volume production, adapting our techniques to suit your needs.
  • Sophisticated Parting Lines: Our expertise in setting parting lines minimizes flashes on rubber molded parts, ensuring a high-quality finish.
  • Temperature Management: We rigorously control the molding temperature to balance flow, quality, and strength of the final product.
     

Rubber Compression Molding Service

Recognized as one of the most cost-effective and widely used methods, compression molding is ideal for low to medium production volumes. This process involves pre-heating the rubber material and compressing it into the mold cavity using a high-pressure press. It's particularly advantageous for producing large, bulky products like gaskets, seals, and o-rings.
 
  • Mold Construction: We design a two-plated mold, adaptable for closed and open structures.
  • Material Placement: The molding material, mixed with a curing agent, is placed in the heated cavity.
  • Mold Compression: The material is compressed, ensuring full contact with all mold areas.
  • Heating and Curing: The mold is heated to cure the rubber effectively.
  • Final Processing: After molding, we remove overflows and prepare the product for delivery.

What is Rubber Molding?

Rubber molding shapes rubber into different products. It uses heat and pressure in a mold. This method is quick and saves costs. It also makes parts that are accurate and strong. The process includes three types: injection, compression, and transfer molding. Each type has its own use and benefits. This makes rubber molding important in making various rubber items.
 

Rubber Injection Molding

Advantages of Rubber Injection Molding

- Superior precision: Ideal for intricate designs requiring exact dimensions.
- Efficient production: Suitable for high-volume manufacturing, offering consistency.
- Minimal waste: Produces less scrap material, enhancing cost-effectiveness.

Disadvantages of Rubber Injection Molding

- Limited material compatibility: Best suited for silicone rubber molding and similar materials.
- Higher initial costs: Investment in specialized machinery can be substantial.

 

 

 

Rubber Compression Molding

Advantages of Compression Molding

- Versatility: Adaptable for various materials, including black rubber molding.
- Cost-effective: Lower tooling costs, making it suitable for custom rubber molding projects.
- Simplified process: Easier to manage and maintain, especially for flexible rubber molding.

Disadvantages of Compression Molding

- Limited complexity: Not ideal for extremely detailed or thin-walled designs.
- Longer cycle times: May not be suitable for large-scale production demands.

 

Rubber Transfer Molding

Advantages of Rubber Transfer Molding

- Customization: Excellently suited for qualiform rubber molding, allowing for unique part designs.
- High-quality finish: Produces parts with smooth surfaces and precise details.
- Good for small parts: Ideal for manufacturing small, intricate components.

Disadvantages of Rubber Transfer Molding

- Increased waste: Can generate more material waste compared to injection molding.
- Complex tooling: Requires intricate mold designs, which can increase production costs.

  • Molding  Type  Ⅰ

    Plastic injection molding

    Plastic injection molding is a popular process which used widely in manufacturing industry, especially for mass production. At TEAM MFG, we specialize in prototype & low volume parts injection molding, combining with rapid mold technology, we can offer injection molded parts faster than the traditional molding. Customers can have their parts in different materials, rubber part, clear part, over molding part, insert molding part, thread molding part etc are available at TEAM MFG.

  • Molding  Type Ⅱ

    Insert Molding

    Insert Molding is the insert piece(or pieces) put into the mold cavity before injecting the plastic into the mold. The resulting product is a single piece with the insert encapsulated by the plastic. And the insert can be brass nut or other customized shape insert in metals or plastics.

  • Molding  Type Ⅲ

    Over Molding

    Over molding is a multi-material injection molding process. Through Over molding, the over molding material (usually a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE / TPV)) is molded onto a first molded material, which is usually a rigid plastic. Taking a look at toothbrush handle, where the individual parts have both rigid and rubber.
