As a China bucket mould manufacturer, Micon Mould has a comprehensive range of plastic bucket mould, including oval bucket mould, paint bucket mould, oval pail mould etc. For plastic buckets, in order to better occupy the market, the tightness of plastic bucket and the IML technology are often the major focus of plastic bucket suppliers.

Plastic bucket sealing, focus on the processing of the mold size and shrinkage rate of material. For example, in the beginning of mould design, need to estimate cover and bucket shrinkage rate, this is very important, if the estimate is not accurate, then the matching of the cover and bucket body will be a problem, such as, too loose may lead to leakage, the seal is not enough, cause mould test repeatedly, too tight may cause the lid can't assembly to the bucket.

How to strengthen the sealing of plastic bucket? How to buy a high - yield, high - life plastic bucket mould?

1. Choose the right steel material for the plastic bucket mould, and do a proper steel treatment.

2. Product drawing requires better sealing performance design.

3. In the process of mold processing, the relevant matching processing dimensions need to be controlled, and three-axis dimension detection can be adopted.

4. Have a relatively stable injection molding process and raw materials.

With the maturity and wide application of the IML process, plastic bucket in mold label gradually replaced the traditional heat transfer printing process, both in terms of production efficiency and product quality, far beyond the traditional plastic bucket heat transfer printing. The plastic bucket in mold labeling system requires high mould accuracy and mould cycle for the plastic bucket. In the mould processing process, the dimensional accuracy control is the most important thing. Generally, P20 or 718H is used as the steel material of the plastic bucket mould with IML.

Frequently Asked Questions?

Plastic bucket mould is a type of mould used in manufacturing to create plastic buckets. It is a form or shape into which molten plastic material is poured and then allowed to cool and solidify. The mould is typically made of metal, usually mould steel, and consists of two halves that fit together to form the shape of the bucket. When the plastic has cooled and solidified, the mold is opened and the bucket is removed.
The typical lifespan of a bucket mold can vary depending on various factors, including the material used, mold design, production conditions, and maintenance practices. However, a well-constructed and properly maintained steel bucket mold can typically last tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of cycles. Factors such as material quality, mold design, operating conditions, and regular maintenance play crucial roles in determining the mold’s longevity. Regular inspection, maintenance, and timely repairs or replacements can help maximize the mold’s lifespan.
First, during the mold design process, it is necessary to check the insert, slider, exhaust, gate, shrink, bucket wall thickness, mould structure and other information. Secondly, during the mould manufacture process, check the hardness of the mould material and control the processing tolerance. Thirdly, after the mould trial is successful, check the weight of the bucket and the fit of the bucket cover. Provide customers with a high-quality bucket mould.
Our bucket molds are usually suitable for in mold labeling. If in mold labeling is required, please inform us in advance.
Some general maintenance practices for bucket molds include: Regular cleaning: Clean the mold after each use to remove any residual material or debris. Use appropriate cleaning agents and tools to avoid damaging the mold surface. Lubrication: Apply a suitable mold release agent or lubricant to prevent sticking and facilitate smooth ejection of the molded bucket. Make sure to use lubricants compatible with the mold material. Inspections: Regularly inspect the mold for any signs of wear, damage, or buildup. Pay attention to areas such as the ejection system, cooling channels, and critical surfaces.
