The development and injection molding of medical moulds are pivotal forces driving the thriving medical device industry. Advancements in mould and injection molding technologies enable more efficient, precise, and safe manufacturing of medical devices, which is invaluable for patient health.

I. Overview of the Medical Device Market

• Market Prospects

With the steady improvement in people's living standards and cultural attainments, coupled with the accelerating aging trend, the demand for medical devices is continuously growing. According to predictions by the China Medical Devices Industry Association, the market size of medical devices will exceed RMB 600 billion by 2020. Additionally, national policy support and emphasis provide solid safeguards for the development of the medical device industry.

• Stringent Quality Requirements

Medical devices, as products directly related to human health, prioritize life safety and quality safety in their manufacturing process. Therefore, quality and safety always occupy a central position, with a focus on ensuring product precision and reliability.

• Manufacturing Process Precision

Currently, the medical device industry predominantly adopts injection molding, a process characterized by rapid molding, no need for post-processing, high production efficiency, and product accuracy. It has become an indispensable key technology in the field of medical device manufacturing.

II. Key Points in the Development and Injection Molding of Medical Moulds

• Intelligent Material Selection

Material selection considers not only the usage environment and functional requirements of medical devices but also the adaptability of mould processing and injection molding. Materials that maintain high strength, good wear resistance, and can withstand extreme factors such as high temperatures, high pressures, and high speeds are ideal for mould manufacturing.

• Ingenious Design and Development

Mould design should take into account the overall product, considering factors such as device structure, size, and shape, as well as mould materials and manufacturing processes, to ensure precise and repeatable product molding.

• Precision Mould Processing

Mould processing requires extremely high precision, often reaching the micrometer level. This necessitates the use of high-end CNC machines and advanced CAD/CAM software. Rigorous inspection and monitoring of every process step are essential to ensure processing quality and production efficiency.

• Meticulous Injection Molding

Injection molding involves heating predetermined materials to a molten state and injecting them into moulds under high pressure using injection molding machines. This process includes machine selection, parameter setting, mold clamping, and part ejection. Process optimization is crucial for cost reduction and efficiency improvement.

• Stringent Quality Control

Quality control is the core of the entire production process. It must strictly adhere to international standards such as ISO and CE. Comprehensive inspections are required for product appearance, size, tolerance, weight, and other aspects, along with various tests for injection molding and mould processing. Professional tools like optical projectors and electron microscopes are used to ensure that each component meets specified standards.
