INJECTION MOLDING
Injection molding is a manufacturing process for producing parts by injecting molten material into a mould, or mold. Injection molding can be performed with a host of materials mainly including metals, glasses, elastomers, confections, and most commonly thermoplastic and thermosetting polymers.
We at Bluewater Heater provide products and solutions for the injection molding world such as heaters, sensors and controls
EXTRUSION & BLOW MOLDING
Product quality begins upstream. Regardless of your extrusion system, Watlow’s family of thermal solutions provides the high-performance, reliability and accuracy needed to optimize your process.
Whether OEM or end-user, many of today’s applications require process control data as well as history documentation to comply with various policies and regulations. Many processors proactively seek products that offer both traceability and product repeatability. Watlow’s product solutions bridge the gap by providing evidence of overall product quality, assuring process repeatability and shortening overall startup time.
Watlow has the heaters, sensors and controllers for your extrusion process:
MOLD BUILDING/MAKING
The term moldmaker may also be used to describe workers employed in fabricating dies and metal moulds for use in injection moulding and die-casting, such as in the plastics, rubber or ceramics industries, in which case it is sometimes regarded as a variety of the trade of the toolmaker. The process of manufacturing molds is now often highly automated.
While much of the machining processes involved in mold making use computer-controlled equipment for the actual manufacturing of molds (particularly plastic and rubber injection and transfer). Moldmaking is still a highly skilled trade requiring expertise in manual machining, CNC machining, CNC wire EDM, CNC Ram EDM, surface grinding, hand polishing and more. Because of the high skill and intense labor involved much of the mold making in the US has been outsourced to low wage countries. The majority of plastic and rubber parts that are in existence today are made using injection or transfer molds- requiring a mold to be manufactured by a moldmaker.
