What is the draft angle? The draft angle is the amount of taper for molded or cast parts perpendicular to the parting line. It can be measured in degrees or mm/mm (in/in). Why Draft angle injection molding? Reduces the chance of damage to the part due to friction during release [...]
Mold Tech Texture Minimum Drafting Angle For Releasing(Demold) Injection mould tooling can be textured by different means, which may vary according to tool manufacture method, timescale, budget, material and supplier facility limitation. Aluminum tooling (and others) which is typically machined rapidly by a CNC process often uses bead, sand or vapour blasting [...]
SPI Surface Finish Standards The SPI is that Society of the Plastics Industry sets standard for plastics industry in the United States that identifies the cosmetic quality of plastics, Upmold uses the SPI standard to define finish of plastic injection molded parts. There are twelve grades of finishes specified by the SPI [...]
