Silicone figurines will more or less break during the production process. In this case, they can only be scrapped and it is difficult to rework. This will cause the manufacturer's cost to be too high and the profit will also decrease. Therefore, as an enterprise, it is necessary to prevent this from happening. To reduce the number of broken products, it is necessary to first understand the reasons and which links lead to the breakage of silicone figurines.
1. The quality of silicone raw materials is not good, the performance is too poor, and the toughness is not good, which will easily cause the breakage, so the silicone raw materials must be well controlled.
2. The silicone is not complete in the vulcanization process. When the molding temperature is too low or the vulcanization time is too short, it will cause the product to be close to the mold and not easy to demold, which is more likely to break. Other conditions may also occur, so it is necessary to increase the molding temperature or extend the vulcanization time in the vulcanization process.
3. If the molding temperature of silicone figurines is too high, the silicone will become brittle and easy to break when demolding, which is also easy to break, so the molding temperature can be appropriately reduced.
4. If the surface of the silicone mold is too rough or accumulates dirt, it will be difficult to demold and will cause cracks. You only need to clean or electroplate the mold.
5. Sometimes, because the operator's demolding operation method is irregular, it is easier to cause many problems, so the demolding operator needs professional operation training.
We cannot avoid the cracking of silicone figurines, but we can reduce the proportion of defective products caused by cracks through regulations. Generally, most of the cracked silicone products are silicone rubber products, so we must pay attention to these aspects during the production process.
