FAQs
What is the hourly rate for injection molding?
Injection molding hourly rates typically range from $20 to $150, depending on part complexity and machine type.
What is cheaper than injection molding?
3D printing, vacuum casting, and CNC machining can be cheaper alternatives for low-volume or prototype parts.
How much does injection molding cost per part?
Injection molding costs per part range from a few cents to several dollars, depending on factors like material, complexity, and production volume.
What are the advantages of injection molding?
Injection molding has many advantages but the one that stand out the most is the support for mass production of parts. This in turn reduces the cost of production due to the lower cost per unit part as production increases.
Additionally, it is compatible with parts with complex geometries, providing consistency during production.
What are common defects in injection molding?
Common defects you can encounter during injection molding include the following:
- Warping
- Sink marks
- Flashes
- Short shots.
These injection molding defects can occur due to improper mold design, wrong material choice, wrong tooling, or the use of the wrong injection molding technique
How long does it take to produce injection-molded parts?
Injection molding typically takes 2-8 weeks. But GS Proto can basically guarantee completion within a week.
Other factors that can alter the production time include the parts design complexity, size, injection service provider capabilities, and the production volume.
What is the cost of injection molding?
iBest Proto offers a injection molding services at a competitive price.
However, you need to consider factors like mold complexity, material selection, production capability, and production volume during budgeting.
The production volume is a very important factor to consider because the higher the number of parts produced the lower the cost per unit part.
What is the lifespan of an injection mold?
The injection mold longevity depends on the material used in making it.
There are two common materials: steel and aluminum. Steel has a higher longevity and a single steel mold can produce thousands to millions of parts hence its use in high volume production. On the other hand, aluminum molds are less durable and suitable for hundreds to thousand runs.
What is the minimum order quantity for injection molding?
iBest Proto has no minimum order requirement. We value every designer and engineer who invests in their dreams and ideas.
Can injection molding accommodate design changes after mold creation?
Yes, it is possible to accommodate some design changes after mold creation. However, this will come at an additional cost.
Depending on the changes required, it might need us to make a new mold.
Because it can lead to wastage of resources, ensure you communicate with us efficiently to reduce the need for changes and the associated cost.
