Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of molds, in particular to a mold for producing lightweight materials based on a GMPU process. Background Art

[0002] A mold is a tool or device used to create shaped or cast objects. Molds are typically made of materials such as silicone, metal, and plastic. Their primary function is to replicate or produce a product of a given shape and size. Molds can be categorized into different types depending on the specific manufacturing process and requirements. "Hot mold" generally refers to molds used for hot press forming or hot compression molding. This process is commonly used in the processing of plastics or composites. Its basic principle is to pass raw materials (such as plastic sheets or thermoplastic composites) through a mold under high temperature and pressure to form the desired shape and size. During hot press forming, a preheated mold is typically used to ensure rapid heating and good fluidity of the material upon entering the mold. This method effectively improves material fluidity and molding efficiency, while ensuring the surface quality and dimensional accuracy of the molded part. Hot press forming is often suitable for producing parts requiring high precision and complex shapes, such as those in the automotive, aerospace, and electronics industries. The GMPU process involves implementing a product safety and hygiene management system throughout the entire production and processing process.

[0003] At present, the existing GMPU process mold needs to be foamed before punching during use, which affects production efficiency. There is also the problem of inaccurate positioning of the secondary punching product. Therefore, a mold for the production of lightweight materials based on the GMPU process is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
