+86-20-22378259Two weeks ago, KRMOLD successfully signed a contract with a Bulgarian client for a Smart Home Injection Mold project. This project not only demonstrates KRMOLD expertise in injection mold for smart home devices but also marks a further expansion of KRMOLD presence in the smart home market. This article will detail the Bulgarian customer’s background, initial communication, smart home injection mold design and manufacturing process, and how KRMOLD ensured they met their needs.
1/ Bulgarian Customer Background
This customer is a supplier with extensive experience in smart home products and is Bulgaria's first private company specializing in security and communication systems. Their product portfolio includes a wide range of smart devices, particularly surveillance and detectors. The Bulgarian client learned about KRMOLD smart home injection molds through KRMOLD website and decided to partner with KRMOLD to produce smart home injection molds for cameras and detectors.
With the growing popularity of smart homes, the Bulgarian customer aims to enhance market competitiveness by improving product quality and production efficiency. Therefore, they place high demands on smart home injection mold precision, durability, and production efficiency.
2/ KRMOLD Initial Communication with Customer Regarding Injection Mold for Smart Home Devices
1. Product Dimensions and Structure
During the initial communication with the Bulgarian customer, KRMOLD focused on the product's dimensions and structure. Understanding the precise dimensions and structure of the product is crucial for injection mold for smart home devices development. The mold cavity must be designed based on the product's size and shape, and any error can impact the quality of the final product.
The product dimensions and structure information provided by the Bulgarian customer directly impacts smart home injection mold processing costs. Generally speaking, larger product sizes require higher material and processing costs. More complex product structures increase the design and processing complexity, and thus the cost. Therefore, KRMOLD repeatedly confirmed the data with the Bulgarian customer to ensure accuracy.
2. Material Selection
Material selection is a critical factor in smart home injection molds manufacturing. Material costs typically account for a significant portion of injection mold for smart home devices development costs. KRMOLD explained the characteristics of different materials and their applicable applications to the Bulgarian customer.
For example, for ordinary plastic products with production volumes under 300,000 units, P20 steel is sufficient due to its low price and stable performance. However, if the customer has high requirements for surface finish or wear resistance of the plastic product, a mold steel with better wear resistance or polishing properties, such as NAK80 or S136 steel, would be more suitable.
During KRMOLD communication with the Bulgarian customer, they did not specify the type of steel they would use. This meant that KRMOLD needed to further understand their specific requirements for the plastic product, their expected production volume, and other relevant information in order to select the most suitable mold steel and calculate an accurate mold development cost.
3. Process Requirements for Smart Home Injection Molds
The process requirements of the smart home injection molds will also affect the final mold development cost. In this regard, KRMOLD discussed the choice of runner. The Bulgarian customer could choose between cold runners and hot runners. Cold runners have a relatively simple structure, are easy to process, and are relatively inexpensive; hot runners, on the other hand, offer better production efficiency and material utilization, making them suitable for large-scale production.
KRMOLD explained the advantages of hot runners to the Bulgarian customer, particularly when high production volumes are required. Using hot runners in smart home injection molds can significantly improve production efficiency. KRMOLD also emphasizes the choice of cavity count: single-cavity or multiple-cavity, depending on the size of the plastic product and the projected production volume. Larger products generally require fewer cavities, while higher production volumes can increase the number of cavities.
3/ Smart Home Injection Mold Manufacturing Process
After reaching an initial consensus with the Bulgarian customer, injection mold for smart home devices manufacturing proceeds according to the following steps:
1. Smart Home Injection Mold Design
injection mold for smart home devices design is the first step in smart home injection mold manufacturing. Based on the product dimensions and structure provided by the Bulgarian customer, KRMOLD team of engineers will perform detailed 3D modeling to ensure that all parts of the injection mold for smart home devices fit perfectly. The design phase considers factors such as flow channels, cooling systems, and exhaust systems to ensure final product quality.
2. Smart Home Injection Mold Manufacturing
Once the design is finalized and approved by the customer, injection mold for smart home devices manufacturing enters the actual production phase. KRMOLD uses high-precision CNC machine tools to machine the injection mold for smart home devices, ensuring every detail meets the design requirements. This process involves multiple steps, including cutting, milling, grinding, and EDM.
3. Smart Home Injection Mold Inspection and Trial
After injection mold for smart home devices manufacturing is complete, KRMOLD conducts rigorous inspections to ensure that each component meets standard dimensions and quality. Subsequently, a trial smart home injection mold is conducted to verify the injection mold for smart home devices' actual production capacity and product quality. During the trial smart home injection mold, KRMOLD monitors every product parameter and makes adjustments as needed.
4. Smart Home Injection Mold Modification and Repair
If any issues are discovered during the trial injection mold for smart home devices, KRMOLD engineers will quickly modify and repair the injection mold for smart home devices to ensure the final product quality meets customer requirements. During this phase, KRMOLD maintains close communication with the Bulgarian customer, providing timely feedback on trial injection mold for smart home devices results and improvement suggestions.
5. Smart Home Injection Mold Maintenance and Shipment
After confirming that the smart home injection mold meets all requirements, KRMOLD will perform maintenance to ensure its long-term use in subsequent production. After maintenance, the injection mold for smart home devices will be packaged and shipped to the Bulgarian customer.
KRMOLD believes that this project will provide strong support for the Bulgarian customer's smart home product production and contribute to their market success.
In the future, KRMOLD will continue to be committed to technological innovation and service improvement, providing customers with better injection mold for smart home devices and solutions, and promoting the development of the smart home industry. By continuously optimizing our Smart Home Injection Mold, we look forward to working hand in hand with more customers to explore the bright future of smart home together.
