Processors should first equip each mold with a resume card to record and count its use, care (lubrication, cleaning, rust prevention) and damage in detail. Based on this, it can be found which parts and components have been damaged and the degree of wear to provide discovery. and information to solve the problem, as well as the molding process parameters of the mold and the materials used in the product, in order to shorten the test run time of the mold and improve production efficiency.

Processors should test various properties of the mold when the injection molding machine and mold are operating normally, and measure the dimensions of the final molded plastic part. Through this information, the current status of the mold can be determined, and the cavity, core, and Based on the information provided by the plastic part about the damage to the cooling system and parting surface, the damage status of the mold and maintenance measures can be determined.

It is necessary to focus on tracking and testing several important parts of the mold: the function of the ejection and guide parts is to ensure the opening and closing movement of the mold and the ejection of plastic parts. If any part of them is stuck due to damage, it will cause production to stop, so it should be maintained regularly. Lubricate the ejector pins and guide posts of the mold (the most suitable lubricant must be selected), and regularly check whether the ejector pins, guide posts, etc. are deformed and have surface damage. Once found, they must be replaced in time; after completing a production cycle, the working surface of the mold must be inspected , moving and guide parts are coated with professional anti-rust oil, and special attention should be paid to protecting the elastic strength of the bearing parts of the gear and rack molds and spring molds to ensure that they are always in the best working condition; as the production time continues , the cooling channel is prone to deposit scale, rust, silt and algae, etc., making the cooling channel cross-section smaller and the cooling channel narrower, greatly reducing the heat exchange rate between the coolant and the mold, and increasing the production cost of the enterprise, so the cleaning of the channel It should be noted that for hot runner molds, the maintenance of heating and control systems is particularly important because it helps prevent production failures. Therefore, after each production cycle, the belt heater, rod heater, heating probe and thermocouple on the mold should be measured with an ohmmeter. If there is any damage, it should be replaced in time and compared with the mold history. Compare and keep records so that problems can be discovered in a timely manner and countermeasures can be taken.

Pay attention to the surface maintenance of the mold, which directly affects the surface quality of the product. The focus is on preventing rust. Therefore, it is particularly important to choose a suitable, high-quality, and professional anti-rust oil. After the mold completes the production task, different methods should be used to carefully remove the residual injection molding according to different injection moldings. Copper rods, copper wires and professional mold cleaning agents can be used to remove residual injection molding and other sediments in the mold, and then air dry. It is forbidden to clean with hard objects such as iron wires and steel bars to avoid scratching the surface. If there are rust spots caused by corrosive injection molding, please use a grinder to grind and polish, spray professional anti-rust oil, and then store the mold in a dry, cool, and dust-free place.
