    Transfer Molding - Process

    • Suitable for thermo-setting plastics


    • The amount of molding material is measured
    • The material is preheated
    • The material is loaded into a chamber called pot
    • A plunger is used to force the material from the
    pot into mold cavities
    • The mold remains closed as the material is
    inserted Contd.

    9M402.48 6
    Transfer Molding - Process

    • The mold walls are heated above the melting point of the
    material
    • The material flows faster through the cavities
    • The mold remain closed until curing the material is
    complete
    • Ejector pins are used to push the part from the mold
