How To Make Carbon Fiber Molds & Parts | Mold Making For Carbon Fiber

Due to the particularity of carbon fiber material, it is usually hard and light, it can be injection moulded. The carbon fiber mold is applicable to the process and products with carbon fiber as raw material and solid plastic resin. It’s widely used in aircraft, high-end automobile and other fields. Although carbon fiber products are expensive, you only need to make a high-quality carbon fiber mold and you can mass produce carbon fiber parts. This article covers all the methods of manufacturing a carbon fiber mold.

How To Make A Carbon Fiber Mold?
Mold Making For Carbon Fiber
First of all, before we start to make carbon fiber mold, our engineer team will analyze the feasibility of carbon fiber products and evaluate what kind of materials are used for carbon fiber mold manufacturing and get to know customer’s requirements for surface gloss of carbon fiber parts. When we understand the specific requirements, we will carry out 2D and 3D mold design for carbon fiber mold. After confirming the final 3D design of carbon fiber mold with customers, EX MOULD will officially start the mold production. EX MOULD’s processing equipment can effectively complete the mold cutting, drilling and other work, and use high-speed milling equipment to finish the mold to ensure the accuracy of the mold.
Carbon fiber mould manufacturing method:
– Mold opening (surface finish Mirror Standard)
– Apply release agent
– Brush resin, lay carbon fiber cloth and cure
– Mold lifting
– Processing, polishing and polishing

After the carbon fiber mold is processed, our engineers will test the mold. After all mould details are confirmed to be correct, we will check and debug the mould, and record the parameters of carbon fiber mold test. After that, 3D scanning and testing were carried out on the molded products. We’ll delivery in time, quality assurance, price competitive advantage.
Requirements Of Carbon Fiber Products For Mold Processing

Under normal conditions, the production of carbon fiber mold requirements are as follows:
1. Due to the need for injection resin, the mold needs to have injection port and exhaust port, which can realize sealing as a whole. In the process of resin injection, there is no air leakage, especially in the case of vacuum liposuction, the sealing of the mold directly affects the quality of carbon fiber products.
2. Planning has the upper and lower mold guide, positioning equipment, mold locking organization, product demoulding organization;
3. The dimension of die cavity is accurate, the cooperation between upper and lower dies is accurate, and the surface precision of mold surface is very high.
4. It has satisfied strength and stiffness, and does not deform under the injection pressure.
5. With certain heating equipment, the mold can be heated to a certain temperature (60-120 ℃), the temperature distribution of the mold surface is uniform, and the temperature can be inspected and adjusted.
