Injection Molding Rice Cooker Manufacturers

Injection molding factories undertake the production of various plastic products every year, covering the electronics industry (such as mobile phone cases), home appliance industry (such as rice cooker shells) and automotive industry (such as accessory injection molding). Different products vary in material selection, structural design and manufacturing process. Today, we will focus on the knowledge related to the production of the ear in the rice cooker shell.

Rice cooker manufacturers have relatively high requirements for injection molding.

Although the ear is just an ordinary component in the rice cooker, it not only needs to be consistent with the rice cooker in appearance, but also must meet the relevant standards of the rice cooker in performance. As a daily household appliance, the rice cooker shell needs to be wear-resistant, high-temperature resistant and washable to withstand various operations. Therefore, when selecting the material for the ear, the OEM Plastic Moulding Supplies Manufacturer needs to choose non-toxic, harmless, corrosion-resistant, high-temperature resistant and lightweight materials. Usually, manufacturers will choose modified polypropylene (PP) materials because the ears made of it have a high bending fatigue life and good electrical insulation.

At present, the auxiliary materials added by injection molding factories to PP materials mainly include brighteners, talcum powder, dyes and mica.

The addition of these auxiliary materials will not affect the original excellent properties of PP, but can significantly improve its rigidity. Consumers can usually feel this when using rice cookers: high-quality rice cookers are not easy to crack when they are accidentally dropped. By modifying the PP material, the injection molding factory can ensure that the ears of the rice cooker are less likely to be damaged when it falls.
