On the correct method of mold classification

On the classification of the mold, I believe that a lot of friends engaged in the mold industry is not a clear classification standards, today's Dongguan Plastic mold factory to share with you about the correct way to mold classification.
      Type of mold classification:
      1 according to the molding process: hot die and cold for mold;
      2 according to the molding material: metal mold and non-metallic mold;
      3 according to the production volume to sample: Die (simple mode) and mass production mode;
      4 according to the mold material: soft mold and die.
      Today, to focus on the molding material to be divided into the mold type:
      1 metal material is divided into: die casting mold, die casting mold, stamping die (bending, punching, blanking, drawing, flanging, plastic, etc.) (hot forging die forging, cold forging, rolling, extrusion, drawing, etc.) of powder metallurgy mold (isostatic pressing of powder metallurgy, metal injection molding powder metallurgy powder forging, powder metallurgy, sintering powder metallurgy etc.).
     2 non metallic materials die is divided into: plastic molding (extrusion, blow molding, injection molding, compression molding, gas assisted vacuum, etc.), rubber mold, glass mold, ceramic mold, powder metallurgy mold (PTFE) etc..
