Insertmolding: Electrical components

[marcunator]

Hey everybody,

I recently made an account on this forum. There is alot of helpfull information and it seems like a nice community!

Im a 23 year old mechanical engineering student, and for my final assignment I need to research the work-flow of the Insertmolding process. I would like to insert electrical components. I know the basics of moulding but Insertmouldings seems to be a totally different world.

Can anybody give me some advice. I need a kickstart to launch this project so any examples or documents reffering to this matter are greatly appreciated.


Cheers,

Marc

Ps. Im located in the Netherlands

Hi Marc,
Every insert molding job is different. The basic principle is to put the insert in the mold, have a way to hold it, close the mold, have a way to hold it in place during injection, and the rest of it remains the same. Not sure what else I can put here. It is a VERY vast topic and every part is unique. Hope you can post some specifics and we can help.
