ABS Plastic Molding Process for Mobile Phone Holder

As a mobile phone holder ABS plastic molding manufacturer, Alpine Mold follows a precise and efficient process to ensure the highest quality of the mobile phone holder.

1. Free Quotation

The customer provided a 3D drawing and detailed specifications for the phone holders, including material, color, surface treatment, and quantity. Our team evaluated the information and provided a free quotation within 24 hours.

2. DFM/Mold Design

Alpine Mold's engineers performed a Design for Manufacturability (DFM) analysis on the 3D drawings to ensure they met ABS molding standards. We submitted a DFM report and worked with the customer to optimize the design within 1 day. After design approval, we completed the mold design in 2 days.

3. Mold Build and VDI 30 Surface Finish

Alpine Mold began manufacturing the plastic injection mold for phone holders, which involved the procurement of steel materials, grinding&drilling, CNC machining, electrical discharge machining (EDM), wire cutting, assembly, thorough inspections, and mold trials.

During the mold manufacturing process, we utilized our Charmilles EDM machine to achieve a VDI 30 surface finish directly. Charmilles, a renowned Swiss brand, offers the following advantages:

1. Equipped with an efficient cooling system, it helps reduce thermal distortion and improve machining accuracy.

2. Produces beautiful and uniform textured surfaces, enhancing the aesthetic quality and consistency of parts.

3. Creates mirror-polished surfaces without the need for manual polishing, resulting in labor cost savings.
