Advantages and Application of pressing moulds
- Very large pressing moulds parts (>250 lbs) can be produced with minimal fiberglass degradation, yielding the strongest parts of all molding processes.
- Material can be placed in the cavity to achieve optimum fiber orientation in critical strength locations – the process is not limited by gate locations.
- Dissimilar materials can be placed in the mold, such as glass mat or uni-directional glass to improve part strength.
- An economical choice for small (<1,000) to very large volumes using single or multiple cavity tooling.
The pressing molding parts have been used in many kinds of phases, such as rocket, plane, golf driver, automotive, construction and so on.
