Knowledge
What Is a Multi-Cavity Mold?
A multi-cavity mold contains multiple identical cavities that produce several parts in a single injection cycle.
Knowledge
How It Reduces Cost
Knowledge
1. Higher Output Per Cycle
More parts produced in the same machine time.
Knowledge
2. Lower Labor Cost
Same operator manages higher output.
Knowledge
3. Reduced Machine Time Per Part
Cycle time is shared across multiple cavities.
Knowledge
4. Lower Energy Cost Per Unit
Heating and injection energy is distributed.
Knowledge
Cost Formula Concept
Increasing cavities directly reduces unit cost.
Knowledge
Limitations
Knowledge
Difficult maintenance
Knowledge
Conclusion
Multi-cavity molds are the most effective method for reducing unit cost in mass production.
