Rubber Injection Molding Process in 7 Steps

Rubber Injection Molding Process in 7 Steps

The 7-step rubber injection molding process: material preparation, mold design, injection, vulcanization, demolding, quality control and packing – for accurate, consistent rubber parts.

Rubber injection molding in 7 steps

Rubber injection molding pumps rubber into a closed mold under high pressure for accurate, consistent parts at high output.

Preparing rubber compound

1. Material preparation: natural or synthetic rubber (EPDM, NBR, silicone) compounded with additives, pigments and accelerators.

Rubber mold design

2. Mold design: steel or aluminum mold optimized for injection, with sharp detail and little flash.

Injecting rubber into the mold

3. Injection: preheated rubber is pushed by screw or piston into the cavity.

Vulcanizing rubber in the mold

4. Vulcanization under set temperature and pressure.

Demolding and finishing rubber parts

5. Demolding and deflashing.

Quality inspection of rubber parts

6. Quality control of size, color, elasticity and strength.

Packing and shipping rubber parts

7. Packing and delivery.

The mold drives most of the outcome. Nhan Loc Phat designs and builds rubber injection molds with CNC and EDM machining, free engineering advice and ongoing support.
