What's Suitable for Core Insert Molding
Simply put, Core Insert molding should be evaluated for any part
that contains a threaded hole. An electronics housing unit or
medical instrument case with a bolt-on cover are good examples.
Knobs, handles, or dials that screw onto a threaded stud are also
examples, as is a plastic air or hydraulic manifold requiring
additional strength in threaded areas. In fact, almost any plastic
component that attaches to a mating piece with screws or bolts will
benefit from molded fasteners
A rotating part such as a fan blade or a drive gear is another good
candidate for Core Insert molding. Here, a bronze or brass bushing
is molded into the part and serves as the bearing surface, greatly
improving product life over non-bushed parts. A metal surgical saw
that calls for a plastic handle could be insert molded, size
permitting. Wheels and sprockets, pulleys and augers, most any
plastic part that requires greater strength or wear characteristics
in certain areas is quite likely a match for insert molding
The Right Stuff Of Core Insert Molding
Which thermoplastics can be Core Insert molded? There are few
limitations. Stiff, engineering-grade plastics such as Delrin or
nylon are good options, as are polyethylene and ABS, but even
elastic liquid silicone rubber (LSR) parts can be used. The largest
constraint comes from those plastics with very high molding
temperatures, such as PEI (Ultem) or PEEK. Since Core Inserts are
hand-loaded at Protolabs, and because the quick-turn molding
process uses non-cooled aluminum tools to reduce part cost and
speed turnaround time, placing an insert into a mold that’s been
heated to several hundred degrees is a like reaching into a hot
oven for a freshly baked cookie—if you’re not careful, you’ll burn
your fingers
