Air Poppets: Precision Venting for Injection Molds

Air Poppets are specialized precision components in injection molding, engineered to release trapped air from mold cavities through an efficient venting system. This ensures smooth plastic flow, preventing defects like burn marks or incomplete fills while enhancing overall part quality.

Our Air Poppets are designed for reliability and performance, making them ideal for industries such as automotive, electronics, and medical manufacturing.

Core Functions

✔️ Releases trapped air from mold cavities for complete fills.
✔️ Prevents molding defects like burn marks or air bubbles.
✔️ Promotes even plastic flow for superior part quality.
✔️ Supports reliable operation in high-volume production environments.

Processing Materials

We manufacture Air Poppets using high-quality materials to ensure peak performance:

Stainless Steel

  • Corrosion-resistant for demanding environments (e.g., 420, 440C).

Hardened Tool Steel

  • Corrosion-resistant for demanding environments (e.g., 420, 440C).

Custom Materials

  • Corrosion-resistant for demanding environments (e.g., 420, 440C).

Post-Processing & Surface Treatments

Our Air Poppets undergo advanced treatments to enhance performance:

Heat Treatment

Our Air Poppets undergo advanced treatments to enhance performance:

Precision Machining

Ensures a smooth finish (Ra ≤ 0.2 μm) for effective venting.

Nitriding

Boosts surface durability and fatigue strength.

Optional Coatings

PVD or DLC coatings reduce wear and extend lifespan.

Selection Suggestions

Choose the right Air Poppets with these considerations:

Cavity Size

Larger cavities may require bigger poppets for adequate venting.

Production Volume

Select durable materials for high-cycle operations.

Air Pressure Needs

Match poppet size to your system’s air pressure capacity.

Molding Environment

Opt for corrosion-resistant materials in humid conditions.

Rapid Prototyping

Fecision offers rapid prototyping for mold components, enabling customers to test and refine designs quickly before moving into full production.

End-to-End Services

From initial design and DFM (Design for Manufacturability) analysis to final mold assembly and testing, Fecision handles every aspect of the mold component manufacturing process.

Process for Manufacturing Mold Components

The process of making a mold component involves several stages, from design to manufacturing and finishing.
The specific steps can vary depending on the type of mold component being created, but the general steps remain consistent across most types of mold components.
 

Manufacturability Evaluation

The initial step involves assessing the manufacturablity of the mold component. If it's deemed feasible, we proceed with production immediately. If not, we will provide a detailed DFM (Design for Manufacturability) report to the customer. If necessary, mold flow analysis is performed to simulate the flow of molten material within the mold.

Material Selection

Next, choose the right material for mold parts. Common materials for mold components include steel alloys, aluminum, stainless steel, specialty alloys, etc. If needed, a prototype may be made using rapid prototyping techniques (e.g., 3D printing, CNC machining) to test the design for fit, function, and manufacturability.

Mold Components Manufacturing

Once the design and materials are finalized, the mold component undergoes CNC machining. If required, the mold component may undergo heat treatment, depending on the material and intended application. For certain components, surface hardening methods such as nitriding or carburizing are applied to increase wear resistance.

Shipping

For molds with multiple components, such as multi-cavity molds or molds with inserts, the individual components are carefully assembled into the final mold system. Once our engineers confirm the product meets all requirements, it will be shipped. We maintain ongoing communication to ensure the customer is fully satisfied with the product they receive.
