Inject Molded Gears

Injection Molding of Gears is a very popular process of manufacturing gears that are made of plastic. The manufacturing process works like this. First of all the heated plastic is forced into a mold cavity by applying pressure. The heat plastic is then subsequently clamped together. It is then solidified into the shape of the mold or a gear. It is to be noted that injection molding of plastic gears is perfect option for mass produce and smaller production runs would not be an economically feasible option. Popular examples are molded Spur Gears and miter gears.

Advantages of the Injection Molding Process of Gears
  • Precise moldings
  • Faster cycles
  • Reduced maintenance
  • Longer tool life
  • High production rates
  • High tolerances are easily achievable
  • Diverse range of plastic materials are used
  • Material costs are low
  • Low labor costs
  • Scrap losses are minimal
  • Limited finishing needs
  • Multi part molding
