Automotive Rearview Housing Mold

The design of the automotive rearview housing mold needs to consider the maximum outline of the plastic part as the parting surface, with an integral cavity for the upper part and an integral core for the lower part, embedded with several small inserts. The lateral part requires the design of a slider core-pulling mechanism, and the reinforced rib area of the core side needs to be designed with an angle lifter core-pulling structure. Design highlights include:
● Streamlined Surface Design: The outer surface of the automotive rearview mirror housing is a streamlined surface with a complex shape, and most other surfaces are composed of curved surfaces. This design makes the appearance more aesthetically pleasing.
● High Impact Strength and Good Appearance Characteristics: The plastic part material selected is engineering plastic ABS, which has good comprehensive performance, high impact strength, and good appearance characteristics.
● Multiple Reinforcing Rib Design: The housing contains multiple reinforcing ribs in the middle, which increases the strength and rigidity of the shell.

The application scope of automotive rearview housing molds encompasses the manufacturing of various types of car rearview, including exterior rearview, interior rearview, and those with various functions such as electric adjustment, folding, heating, and automatic anti-glare features. The design and manufacturing of these molds require a comprehensive consideration of multiple factors. The design and manufacturing process of automotive rearview housing molds involves several key steps, including structural analysis of the plastic parts, selection of the injection molding machine, design of the mold's gating and cooling systems, and the design of the cavity components and motion mechanisms. These steps ensure that the molds meet the requirements for high precision and quality, while also considering the convenience of manufacturing and maintenance.
