A New Dimension in the World of Auto Parts Moulding – Compression Moulding

Automotive parts moulding is one of the most important techniques, which is used to make auto parts moulds. However, to come up with the finest range of moulds, it is not just enough to use injection moulding techniques. The method that is commonly used for auto parts is known as compression moulding.

Compression Moulding – What is it?

Compression moulding is basically a manufacturing process, which utilizes composite raw materials for producing a finished product or component by applying moulding press. There are varied processing techniques used for manufacturing composite components as well as composite moulding techniques using heat and applying pressure to manufacture robust and repeatable parts. This process involves lower cycle times while it yields greater volume. Hence, cost is also reduced.

Compression moulding technique is primarily used for automotive parts moulding. At HQMould, this method is widely used to come up with some of the finest auto parts that can be used for years. 

Raw Materials Needed

For compression moulding, the raw material needed is sheet moulding compound or SMC. It comprises of chopped glass fibre reinforcing strands, pigments, fillers, resin and additives in matte form. 

Products Created with Compression Moulding

Compression moulding is used to create products that need certain specific characteristics, such as unique design and features, lower unit cost, tailored specification, lightweight etc. It is excellent for auto parts, forklift truck panels, engine covers, vending machine doors and other enclosures. Overall, compression moulding is the ideal procedure to create automotive parts moulding, which last long and give adequate protection.
