Auto Front Rear Lamp Car Headlight Mould

Many clients comment that we are "an exceptional injection mould manufacturer", especially in the field of auto components mould. With years of experience in collaborating with clients on the design improvement of their automotive parts, as well as the design and manufacture of these parts moulds, we have grown rapidly and become stronger and stronger through these collaborations. Clients have derived great benefits from our services and often give high praise for the moulds we provide.

§. Auto headlight drawing description

The parts draft designs provide by clients.

The DFM report sent to client with PDF file or PPT file, from the report, client can get know the detail problems on the part design, and also would know the conception of the mould design. Most plastic mould factory who dont experience in making auto parts mould, even dont what DFM it is. After presented the DFM report to client, client will discuss and tell us if they will need us to make the improvement for the part designs. Most of client will require us to change the part designs for them. As we know better on how to design the parts to fit for making moulds. In this way, we can save lots of time, because parts designs modified by us is faster.

§. Auto headlight mould 3D design

Once the parts 3D designs confirmed, we can start the auto parts mould 3D design. Before the mould 3D design, we need to know the detail plastic raw material shrinkage rate, injection machine detail specification, and the detail requirement on the moulds standard parts.

As we already made the DFM analysis, so mould designs main structure already correct from the beginning, just some small details need to discuss with client and make change on the mould 3D design. Such as limit switch, shot counter, etc. Which we didnt make them on the first time submited moulds design. So if want to get the moulds design fastly, it is better to provide all the detail request in the beginning.

§. Auto headlight mould machining

• Auto components steel procurement
Once moulds design confirmed by client, we can go on the mould steel purchasing and cutting. Steel plates are cut by steel supplier. We just send the steel purchase order to the supplier. The steel detail sizes and detail tooling request already marked on the purchase order sheet. Steel cutting is the first step of the mould tooling. Steel cutting job were done by steel supplier factory. Before the steel plates delivered to our factory, we will check the steel hardness. Inspect the steel hardness can check the steel quality. As every different steel have their own hardness level. If hardness can match the steel which ordered, means that steel is exact what you order. Our factory Taizhou Xiongshi Plastic Mould never use fake steel or cheaper than quoted steel to make moulds.

2. Auto headlight rough tooling.

For small auto parts moulds, the main rough tooling machine is CNC milling tooling. But for some big parts mould, including bumper mould, use tooling centre to tool the mould. As that machine tool big mould, much faster. After rough tooling,moulds will be going on with precise tooling, including cnc high speed milling tooling and cnc engraving tooling.

3. Auto headlight mould precise tooling.

Precise tooling include cnc engraving tooling, high speed cnc milling tooling, EDM tooling, EDW tooling, etc.
CNC engraving tooling include high speed, middle speed and normal speed. The tooling precision high speed > middle speed > normal speed. So when parts require high precise, means tooling require high speed cnc engraving tooling. At the same time, the tooling cost high speed > middle speed > normal speed. So parts sizes tolerance request higher, the tooling cost higher.
Some sizes, like ribs, sizes are very small and narrow, can not be directly tooled by cnc engraving tooling. In this situation, we need to make electrode and tool the mold by EDM. Mainly electrode material include carbon and copper. Copper electrode cost is higher than carbon electrode. The advantage for copper electrode is that its life longer and not easy broken. So some very very small sizes EDM tooling will use copper electrode.

EDW tooling also used to tool small sizes, but which is 0° angle with straight direction. EDW tooling include slow speed and high speed. This tooling is different with cnc milling tooling and cnc engraving tooling. EDW tooling low speed sizes tooled more precise and cost higher.

4. Deep hole drilling tooling for auto headlight mould

Normally cooling lines and ejector pins holes are tooled by deep hole drilling tooling. As normal drilling machine tooling, holes may not straight. Therefor, especially for ejector pins holes, not allowed to be tooled by normal drilling machine.

5. Auto headlight mould polish

After precise tooling finish and cooling lines and ejector pins holes ready tooled, moulds can be assembled and polished. Auto parts mould need high shinning finish on the part surface, mould polish request is very high. Therefore this mould cant be polished by polishing machine, they need to be polished by manual.
