The molding process refers to a process in which a certain amount of SMC sheet/BMC pellets is put into the preheated mold cavity, and after the mold is closed, the molding material melts and flows under the action of high temperature and high pressure, fills the cavity, and solidifies and sets the shape. method. Mainly used for the molding and...

The final product molding factors include prepreg, hot press, working mold, working environment, on-site temperature, relative humidity, etc. The most important thing is the process of curing the prepreg into a product in the cavity after it is molded. It is The result of the combined effect of pressure, temperature and holding time. This article...

Compression molding, also called pressing formation, is an operation of firstly putting plastics in granular or fibrous form into the die cavity under forming temperature and then closing the mold and pressing to make the form and cure of the plastic. Compression molding can be applicable for thermosets, thermoplastics and rubber materials.

The basic process of SMC molding procedure is to put a certain amount of preprocessed molding compound to the die, put high pressure on the compound and make it fill in the die cavity. Under predetermined temperature, molding compound will solidify in the die cavity, and the SMC product can be taken out from the die, and one can get the final...
