DESIGN AND MANUFACTURE OF INJECTION MOLDS FOR WALLMOUNTED PLASTIC HOOK PRODUCTS

Abstract

This project focuses on the research, design, and fabrication of a two-plate injection mold with a slider mechanism to produce wall-mounted plastic hook products. Our research and design approach adheres to standards and fabrication practices to create a complete mold with dimensions of 320 mm × 250 mm × 240 mm, using S50C steel as the mold material. The dimensions of Product 1 are 72.5 mm × 23 mm × 38 mm, Product 2 are 37 mm × 35 mm × 6.5 mm, and Product 3 are 29.5 mm × 22 mm × 7.5 mm, all made from PP plastic. We utilized Inventor 2024, Creo Parametric 8.0, and Moldex 3D software for design and simulation. The achieved outcome is the successful creation of a two-plate mold model with the mechanisms and functions as proposed.
