How do you source a plastic injection mold maker in China

Plastic injection molds are generally constructed from pre-hardened or hardened steel, aluminum, and/or beryllium-copper alloy. Steel molds cost more, but are generally preferred because of their top durability. Hardened steel molds are heat treated after machining, and they are by far best in terms of wear resistance and lifespan. Many steel molds are made to process well over a million parts during their lifetime. For lower volumes, pre-hardened steel molds offer a less wear-resistant and less costly choice. On the other hand, aluminum molds, can cost substantially less, but they generally are ill-suited for top volume parts or production with narrow dimensional tolerances. Nevertheless, aluminum molds are economically generate tens of thousands of thousands of parts, when designed and built using CNC machines in China processes. Copper alloy inserts are sometimes used in mold areas that need quick heat removal. This can decrease cycle time and better the aesthetic standard of
