In-mold insert molding technology is IMD (In-Mold Decoration), and IMD is the internationally popular surface decoration technology. Mainly used for home appliances, such as decorative and functional control panels, automotive dashboards, air conditioning panels, mobile phone housings / lenses, washing machines, refrigerators and other applications are very wide.
IMD is to put the printed decorative sheet into an injection mold, and then inject the gum on the back of the molded sheet so that the resin and the sheet are joined together to form a solidified and cured technology. IMD is the technology of insert decoration while injection molding. The product is integrated with the decorative printing material, and the entire three-dimensional shaped product can be decorated and printed to achieve the decorative and functional properties of the product. effect
IMD is actually a product that is made by punching a printed film, inserting it in an injection mold cavity, and then closing the mold. It is a combination of printing, molding, molding, injection molding technology, will be a comprehensive application of plastic sheet, ink, plastic resin. The injection molding resin is combined with the ink layer on the back of the film. The graphic and logo of the panel are placed between the film and the injection-molded resin. The graphic and logo will not be worn out due to friction or time.
IMD advantages
1st, product stability: Makes the product to produce the correct chromatism that the consistency and the standardization
2. Durability of the product: The protection of the COATING film through the special treatment can provide the product with better surface abrasion resistance and chemical resistance.
3, 3D complex shape design: The excellent stretchability of the applied film can successfully achieve the required product complexity.
4, diversified styles: According to customer needs to create a metal plating or natural material special style
5. Process simplification: Through an injection molding process, molding and decoration can be achieved at the same time, which can effectively reduce costs and working hours, and provide stable production.
6, reduce costs and man-hours: IMD process requires only a set of molds, unlike other old replacement process needs to open multiple sets of fixtures, can remove the manpower and working hours of a process, reduce system costs and inventory costs
