The characteristics of industrial molds made of different materials

1. Steel molds: Steel molds have long durability and service life, making them suitable for producing large quantities of high demand products. However, steel molds are relatively heavy and have high processing costs.
2. Aluminum alloy molds: Aluminum alloy molds have low processing costs and light weight, making them suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises with low requirements for mold quality. However, their service life is short and they are not suitable for large-scale production.
3. Silicone rubber molds: Silicone rubber molds have excellent high-temperature resistance and are suitable for production in high-temperature environments. But compared to other materials, silicone rubber molds have a shorter lifespan.
4. Plastic molds: Plastic molds have low manufacturing costs and high production efficiency, making them suitable for large-scale production with low requirements for mold quality. However, plastic molds have a shorter lifespan and are not suitable for long-term continuous production.
