Main raw materials used in the production of Plastic Parts
1. Polypropylene (PP)
Features: light, good chemical resistance, strong toughness, and good corrosion resistance.
Application: widely used in automotive interior parts (such as dashboards and door trims) and exterior decorative parts (such as headlight housings, bumpers), etc.
2. Polyethylene (PE)
Features: strong flexibility, low temperature resistance, good impact resistance, and good electrical insulation.
Application: commonly used in the manufacture of containers, pipes, and hollow parts such as fuel tanks and water tanks of automobiles.
3. Polyvinyl chloride (PVC)
Features: strong durability, good UV resistance, weather resistance, easy processing and molding.
Application: mostly used in electrical accessories, building materials, automotive interior and exterior decorative parts, etc.
4. Polycarbonate (PC)
Features: high transparency, extremely strong impact resistance, good heat resistance, suitable for products with complex shapes.
Application: widely used in transparent parts of automobiles, such as headlight covers, dashboard housings, etc.
5. Polyamide (PA, commonly known as nylon)
Features:Good mechanical properties, strong wear resistance and high heat resistance, with good chemical stability.
Application: commonly used to manufacture high-strength parts, such as gears, connectors, and automobile engine covers.
6. Polystyrene (PS)
Features: light weight, good rigidity and transparency, easy to process.
Application: used to manufacture exterior parts, dashboards and other decorative parts.
7. Other engineering plastics
Ningbo Heyuan Auto Parts Co., Ltd. may also use other high-performance engineering plastics, such as polyoxymethylene (POM) and polyetheretherketone (PEEK), to meet the strength, temperature resistance or chemical resistance requirements of specific applications.
Improve energy efficiency in the production process of Plastic Parts
Equipment upgrade: Invest in advanced and high-efficiency production equipment to reduce energy consumption and improve production efficiency. For example, injection molding machines with variable frequency drive technology can adjust the operating speed according to actual needs and reduce power consumption.
Optimize production processes: Implement lean production concepts, reduce unnecessary energy waste and improve overall production efficiency by optimizing process flows and layouts.
Real-time monitoring system: Establish an energy monitoring system to monitor and analyze energy consumption in the production process in real time to identify and reduce high-energy consumption links.
