Titanium plating on molds is a new type of surface treatment technology for molds that integrates materials science, physics, electronics, chemistry, and social environmental science. This technology is applied in metal processing, manufacturing processing, and product performance, aiming to promote the rapid development of modern cutting and manufacturing industries.

 

What are the characteristics of titanium plating on molds?

1. Enhance the demolding property of molds, reduce the adhesion between products and molds, improve product quality, and avoid the pollution of products by demolding agents.

2. Increase the surface hardness of molds, reduce the damage to the forming surface. The surface of the coated mold has high hardness, and it is difficult for high-pressure erosion and particles to cause damage, thereby extending the mold's service life.

3. Protect high-mirror molds. The processing cost of high-mirror molds is high. A suitable high-gloss and high-hardness coating not only ensures that the surface finish is not affected but also reduces the cost of rework.

4. Protect the processing surface (such as precision EDM processing surfaces). Many products require a certain surface roughness due to functional needs, which greatly increases the processing cost of the forming surface of injection molds. A high-hardness and high-adhesion coating can effectively protect the time-consuming and labor-intensive working surfaces of molds.

5. Components can achieve oil-free lubrication. The ejector pins of injection molds can achieve oil-free lubrication after coating, which not only extends the mold's service life but also eliminates the need for secondary cleaning of products.

6. For materials with added grinding agents and glass fibers, it significantly increases the mold's service life. The injection molding production of materials with added hard substances accelerates the mold's wear and tear due to different material erosion and movement wear. Applying a high-hardness coating to the mold surface can completely solve this problem.

 

Advantages of titanium plating on molds:

1. Reduce the friction coefficient and decrease processing force.

2. Increase surface hardness and greatly extend the mold's service life.

3. Prevent product scratching and improve product quality.

4. Eliminate the trouble of demolding, polishing, and remolding, and increase power.

 

Titanium plating on molds is widely used in: various powder metallurgy molds, metal molds, hardware stamping molds, tungsten steel molds, metal stretching molds, various plastic molds, various mirror molds, hot runner accessories, various tungsten steel tools, various saw blades, various tools, friction bearings, gears, various equipment, various precision hardware parts, hardware electronic parts, and automotive and motorcycle parts, etc.

 

Benefits of titanium plating on molds:

1. Increase surface hardness.

2. Reduce wear rate and friction coefficient.

3. Strong corrosion resistance and high adhesion.

4. The service life is 5 to 10 times higher than before, making products more competitive in the market.
