When Use Insert Molding Manufacturing Process

Learn when insert molding is the optimal manufacturing process. Embed metal inserts or encapsulate pre-assemblies into plastic parts to improve strength, aesthetics, and functionality while lowering assembly costs.
When Use Insert Molding Manufacturing Process
  • Metal threaded inserts: Enable plastic parts to have screw-machined threads. Benefits include improved strength/wear resistance and ability to assemble components.
  • Electrical components: Encapsulate connectors, sensors, or circuit boards within plastic housing. Protects electronics and facilitates assembly.
  • Fluid connectors: Mold fluid or pneumatic fittings into plastic parts like valves and pumps. Leak-proof and improves reliability.
  • Multi-material handles: Combines hard and soft plastics for ergonomic grips on tool handles. Improves comfort and control.
  • Consolidated assemblies: Inserts allow multiple components to be integrated into a single part, reducing assembly steps, labor costs, and potential defects.
  • Improved Aesthetics: Decorative films and branding inserts can be molded into plastic parts for customized, high-quality surface effects.
  • Enhanced Strength: Metal, carbon fiber, or other inserts molded into plastic can reinforce the part in strategic areas and improve wear resistance.
