Manufacturing Pallet Moulds

As you know, pallets are flat structures that play a vital role in the transportation of goods. They have indeed made fork lifting front loading and the use of jacking device possible for lifting heavy objects and transferring it onto vehicles for transportation. They are also useful for storing goods in warehouses. Previously, these pallets were made of wood and metal. But, you can now get pallets that are made economically however, depending on the purpose for which they are to be used. You have some reputed mold makers like HQ Mould who not only manufacture pallet molds but also offer guidance regarding the right type of molds required for the type of pallet that is required.

Types of Moulds

Types of molding processes applied for Plastic Pallet mould making include

·         Injection molding Plastic pallets- These types are molds are suitable for large scale production of pallets. It is appropriate in cases where the pallets of the same design are to be produced in large numbers. It again involves two processes which are low-pressure structural foam molding and high pressure injection molding. While the former is used to produce pallets with high strength to weight ratio the latter is meant to produce pallets with intricate details.

·         Thermoforming- This includes vacuum thermoforming and pressure thermoforming processes and is used to produce lightweight and cheaper plastic pallets. However, they are strong.

·         Blow molding- This involves processes like Extrusion blow molding, injection blow molding and injection stretch blow molding that is applied according to the requirements. 

·         Compression molding- It is a low-cost low wastage manufacturing process.

Rotational molding-  This process involves the use of plastic powder or granules for the production of pallets.
