The core is a key component used in the production of optical plastic parts, specifically designed for automotive headlamp lenses. The material used for these plastic products is PC clear – Makrolon, chosen for its excellent optical clarity and durability. Due to the high aesthetic and functional requirements for automotive lighting, the core is designed to achieve a high-gloss, mirror-like surface finish, while also allowing for the application of texture patterns.
A distinctive feature of this mold is its use of compression molding, where, after the plastic material is injected into the cavity, the hydraulic system pushes the back mold to compress and shape the material. This ensures precise molding with excellent surface quality, crucial for meeting the stringent visual and performance standards of automotive lighting applications.
