Control of internal shape by gas injection

Gas Assisted Injection Moulding

The principle of this process is that nitrogen gas is injected, during the moulding cycle, either through the sprue or directly into the mould tool. At a controlled high pressure this has the benefit of overcoming sink marks or introducing a cavity without the requirement of a core

Benefits of Gas Assisted Injection Moulding
 
  • Reduced material requirements
  • Reduced cycle times
  • Reduced wear on moulds
  • Improved component quality
