Industrial Applications

Manufacturing Process

1. Product Design & Development

The required dimensions, assembly interfaces, openings, ribs, bosses, clips, and surface requirements are reviewed before mould development. CAD data, technical drawings, or physical samples can be used for component development.

2. Plastic Mould Design

A dedicated injection mould is designed according to the top cover geometry, plastic material, required production quantity, and available injection moulding machine. Proper attention is given to parting lines, draft angles, ejection, cooling, and shrinkage compensation.

3. Mould Manufacturing

The mould is manufactured using suitable tool steel such as P20 Steel, H13 Steel, or S136 Steel, depending on production volume, material requirements, surface finish, and expected mould life.

4. Injection Moulding

Selected plastic granules are melted and injected into the mould cavity under controlled processing conditions. Injection pressure, temperature, cooling time, and cycle parameters are optimized to achieve consistent top-cover production.

5. Finishing & Assembly Preparation

After moulding, gates and unwanted flash are removed. The parts may undergo trimming, surface finishing, printing, marking, or other secondary operations according to the product requirement.

6. Quality Inspection

Finished top covers are checked for dimensional accuracy, surface appearance, mounting features, openings, warpage, and assembly compatibility before bulk production dispatch.

Raw Materials

The final plastic grade should be selected according to the popcorn maker's actual operating temperature, proximity to heating components, mechanical requirements, electrical environment, appearance requirements, and applicable product specifications.

Quality Control

• Raw Material Inspection: Plastic grade, colour, and material consistency are checked.

• Mould Inspection: Cavity condition, parting line, cooling, and ejection system are verified.

• Dimensional Inspection: Critical dimensions, mounting points, openings, and interfaces are measured.

• Visual Inspection: Parts are checked for flash, sink marks, short shots, scratches, warpage, and surface defects.

• Fitment & Functional Inspection: The top cover is checked against mating appliance components for proper alignment and assembly.

• Packaging Inspection: Finished parts are packed appropriately to minimize scratches, deformation, and handling damage.
