Liquid Silicone Rubber(LSR) Injection Molding Process

Apr. 09, 2022

LSR injection molding steps:

· Silicone pellets are fed from a hopper into the barrel.

· The screw rotates to move the pellet forward, friction and the action of the heater make the particles melt.

· After the tool cavity is filled, the silicone must be allowed to cool.

· While the injection-molded silicone part is cooling within the tool, the screw retracts and reloads with melt in preparation for the next injection.

· The molded material reaches its ideal, the tool opens automatically and the part is pushed out.The silicone injection molding process is completed.
