An economic process to eliminate post-mold assembly costs

摘要

Film insert molding involves the screenprinting and thermoforming of a decorated film insert,which is positloned in an injection mold and back-filled with resin.The result is an integrated,high-quality decorated part.The process holds promise as a cost-effective decorative approach in markets like automotive and appliances,where OEMs look to cut secondary operations and adhesives use,expand design flexibility,while enhancing recyclability.
