Overmolding Service
Over molding is an advanced manufacturing process where two or more materials are combined to create a single, cohesive product. This technique involves molding an additional layer of material over a pre-existing part or substrate, often made from different materials such as metals, plastics, or even electronic components. The result is a product that combines the properties of multiple materials, enhancing its functionality, durability, and aesthetic appeal. Over molding is widely used in industries such as automotive, medical devices, consumer electronics, and more, where complex designs and high-performance requirements are critical.
The over molding process begins with the creation of a substrate, which is usually made from a rigid material like plastic or metal. This substrate serves as the base for the over molding process. The second material, often a softer or more flexible polymer, is then injected over or around the substrate in a specialized molding machine. The two materials bond together, forming a single, unified part that incorporates the properties of both the substrate and the over-molded material.
Over molding offers several benefits, including improved grip and ergonomics, enhanced product durability, and the ability to combine multiple functions into a single part. It is an ideal solution for creating multi-material components that require a combination of rigidity and flexibility, such as handles, grips, gaskets, and seals.
