With literally "millions" of plastic, fiberglass and metal items around us, can you imagine the millions and millions of part dies that must be out there stored somewhere? Engineering is cool!
She sounds more like a news anchor describing scary stories to the public rather than talking about manufacturing. Both the original Canadian woman and the dubbed american male voice are much better.
I had to disassemble and clean these things for a year. Not an easy thing to learn and plastic factories don't pay enough to do it but tooling really is a skilled trade.
Good one Ian, But cooling hole drilling after machining the core and cavity profile!!! rare case. It will be drilled before the profile machining. BR//Milind
Really a great stuff. Highly professional way of presenting a mold making process. Pretty easy to understand. Many thanks for uploading a meaningful video.
I was so interested that I never registered the voice as terrible, just not that great. Still this video sucks in a way, because they never stayed on one part. I wanted to see the snow mobile mudguard throughout, and the end result.
Yeah, but how are each detailed part of a complicated plastic model kit designed and turned into injection molds, and how long does this take before completed kits can be produced?
@lincolnmetal1 They likely didn't use coolant at the time of filming so that YOU and I could actually SEE the process of the material being removed... Just FYI.
We do not remove material "particle by particle" and the machine is not called "a CNC" it's a machining centre or milling machine. The second machine is not called "an EDM" it's a spark eroder that performs EDM. Most tools do not have the cavity machined directly into the plate with the water holes, the cavity is mostly a seperate insert fitted into a hole in the plate.
I don't understand this comment section. At least half are shady foreign "companies" who think people learning how plastic molds are made are trying to commission one.
@maikeydii I temped at a company that made and repaired molding dies for Rubbermaid and other companies. Many of these videos have inaccuries but they provide the lay person a good idea of what is involved in making the products that they use in their daily lives, and the industrial processes that most people will never see.
Any idea where I can learn more about the process? I've been having trouble finding information about it. I find a lot of information about how injection molds work but very little about how they are made.
No explanation about how the copper part just appears, and no real explanation about the magic that goes on with with it in that liquid. That's what this video is supposed to be about!
Hi Karl: 1. Copper parts are made by CNC manufacturing. 2. The resin(raw material) will be melted in a barrel of the injection machine, and then injected into the mold and cooling & form, ejecting from the mold at last.
Guys, stop with the hater comments, she's trying her best. Besides, her voice is as good as the man's. If you still hate it because it's not good enough for you, I wanna see you do better.
Besides mold making, mass production, we also do assembling, packing, etc. sales01@rpimoulding.com What factors you need to consider to ask for a mold price? 1) Part 3D file or dimensions of part with unit weight 2) cavities: this is the most basic element for a mold quote. If the part is not very big, usually the manufacturer will ask you how many cavities you want for the mold? If you want 2 cavities, that means you can get 2 pieces from the mold one time. The more cavities, the bigger the mold should be, and of course the mold cost is the more expensive. No worries, I can tell you an easy solution: You can just tell the manufacturer how many pcs of the product you need per year and in the future. Then the manufacturer can calculate how many cavities is the best to save cost for you, and provide the quotation to you. 3) Part material Part material means the raw material of the part or product=what raw material the part should be made of? Maybe you say plastic. Yes, of course, plastic injection molder only do with plastic, but maybe you don't know there are so many different types of plastic. The most common used are PP, PS, PC,Acrylic/PMMA PVC, PU, PET, HDPE,LDPE( just to name some of them). I don't know. Tell you a third secret: you just need to tell the manufacturer what the part is used for(=the application) and the color you want, then the manufacturer can recommend the material for you.
List Of Common Steel Used For making Core and Cavity in Injection Mold : smlease.com/entries/plastic-design/common-steels-used-in-injection-mold-making
Hi Brett, mold costs are from USD2500.0 to USD150K(depending on being used for making what product), part size 80*80*80mm ( mold cost is about USD4500.0 ) on average
Many factors are involved, type of material (steel, aluminum, ceramic, silicone, etc ...), size of end product, size of the mold base, number of end products per mold, and sophistication/complicity of end product. With that said, 4x7 alluminum mold run about $6K and steel molds that are about the size of a large dinner plate are about $65K allum avg 1 milllion hits before replacement, a little longer for steel
wow there are two versions of this. the other video is identical, but just in a male voice. Smart discovery channel. They know that the female voice is more appealing to canadians than americans probably. check out the male voice one /watch?v=0VzOtgiN_PQ
Hello everyone. I'm starting to learn how the mold injection. Please!! i'm hope who have documented about how the make mold injection sharing help me. Thanks so much!!
CNC stands for "computer numerical control' so and machine that isnt manual controled and requires computer operations to use and control it is a cnc , such cnc milling machines cnc lathes ect ect just about every thing now days has been turned cnc
She never explained what CNC is Computer Numeric Control and she never explained EDM electromagnetic discharge machining. I feel like it’s relevant. I used to work in an injection molding factory and also have done my fair share of machining. There’s a lot more going on that just molds.

Well, almost by definition there are fewer dies than end products.

Your Video How It's Made Plastic injection molds Is Very Useful Sharing
I had to disassemble and clean these things for a year. Not an easy thing to learn and plastic factories don't pay enough to do it but tooling really is a skilled trade.
True, its a highly skilled trade!
Good one Ian,
But cooling hole drilling after machining the core and cavity profile!!! rare case. It will be drilled before the profile machining.

I liked the very first commentator. His voice made me pay more attention.
Really a great stuff. Highly professional way of presenting a mold making process. Pretty easy to understand. Many thanks for uploading a meaningful video.
I feel like I'm being scolded for not knowing about the process :(
what how? I know nothing about this and didn't feel that way
@@ChildOfAnAndroid It's all in the voice and intonation.
I was so interested that I never registered the voice as terrible, just not that great. Still this video sucks in a way, because they never stayed on one part. I wanted to see the snow mobile mudguard throughout, and the end result.
*"Computer Guided Tooling Machine"* is much more meaningful than *"Computer Numerical Control"* . 1:40
Class description for the manufacture of an injection mold tool. thumps up.
Molds are freaking EXPENCIVE
expensive*
@@arandomyoutuber6634 *expensive learn where to put the fucking * kid
Yeah, but how are each detailed part of a complicated plastic model kit designed and turned into injection molds, and how long does this take before completed kits can be produced?
This looks like How It's Made but it sounds like a cooking show...
cnc doesn't wear away the metal, it cuts the metal

I've never seen anything like it!
Ian, Great Idea. I just put up a "Contact List" of Injection Molding Companies in my youtube channel. Thanks!
@gerry626 that's because they don't drill pilot holes before boring out completely

i love how they are grinding that base with no coolant...hello thermal expansion, good bye close tolerances. oh, definitely an agie sinker edm :)
@minivet250 BTW EDM stands for Electrical discharge machining not Electrical discharge machine.

im going to have to find the uk one, i cant listen to her
great injecton mold making! thanks for sharing!
explained in good detail, like it
@w33712 she sounds like that girl, sheldons friend, in the big bang theory, i bet its her
Im here from UTK engineering
Thank You for such a detailed explanation.
MY EARS!
Humans are so smart.

"pro-cess...butt-ons."
4:10 are you serious? Like 80% of that material gets wasted... Some engineer at sone point just ran out of fucks to give.
I'm sure I watched this episode last week and it was the guy's voice. This woman is anoying a hell.
They completely glossed over ejection pins
you are very right, if you find a good one please let me know
thanks
worst explanation of EDM ever :D
but I guess it's nice that they have a milling machine called "the CNC" ...
I know right. They didn't even mention the glowsticks or Molly.
@maikeydii That because the company that makes the molds is probably highly incompetent and does such shoddy workmanship that no one uses them.
Oculus Email got me here!
nice
Amazing
@minivet250 My Lathe is controled using CNC too so how do we tell which machine we're talking about if you're calling them all CNC?
you need a mold ( electrode ) to make a mold? How is the electrode formed without a mold?
Hi Edward:
The electrode is made by CNC manufacturing.
Wow, thanks for the info.
r u serious??
there are hundreds of companies which make molds, since simple ones to very (expensive) complex molds.
Thumbs up for BOMBARDIER.
i love you this programe
Good mould.
great
1/100th of a mm? c'mon
I like how she pronounces the word 'batton'.
Sounded like button to me. :{
You thought so? I heard worse on this show!
CNC = computer numerical controlled
molds maid with molds :)
Yo dawg, I heard you like making stuff so we made some stuff to help to make stuff.
Ok 😂

I forgot to mention that those are USA rates, you can expect 50% to 65% less off shore
we manufacture molds
sure, I bought my laser cutter from China, do you have any contact for molds from there?
do you make molds ?
Hi Armis, We are a factory focusing on injection tooling and plastic injection molding.
BUT HAND POLISHING
Noice
I need some molds (for plastic or resin) made, if anyone knows some who makes them please let me know.
thanks

Hi Armis, We make molds.
Hey what company? Im looking to buy a mold. Finding a good company is like finding a needle in a haystack
Hi Tommy, We have been focusing on mold & plastic since 2000, feel free to contact us if you need a competitive solution.
Do you make molds?
If so I need molds made

How about buy from Shenzhen, China?

Holy crap! This watch?v=0VzOtgiN_PQ gives you the exact same episode, but instead of this annoying woman's voice, we get a guy with a very nice voice!
THANK YOU ! I couldn't stand the voice, and the bad reading in this one.
hahaha yeah too much annunciation...
for more examples of plastic manufacturing check out plasti lab
Really could have done without the music.
oh jesus christ that voice, why didnt Oculus link us to the american version ;_;
I think you can learn more about this on Stodoys.
"oh jesus christ that voice, why didnt Oculus link us to the american version ;_;"
You sure are comfirming the american stereotype..
So what? I agree, her voice pierced my ear drums
You're confirming the anti American stereotype, so... :{
Her voice is perfectly fine, just get used to it
terrible video,
using spark eroding is just a way , between hundreds, to make a mold.
my family has been making molds for 50 years.
you guys are rude girls need to talk to :(
I am make injection molding
