 T- Cylinder Tooling Mould

Key Mold Design & Technical Advantages

1. 1×8 Multi-Cavity High-Volume Production

The 1×8 cavity design delivers 8 identical medical connectors in a single injection cycle, significantly boosting production output and reducing unit manufacturing costs. The balanced runner layout ensures uniform melt distribution across all cavities, eliminating part-to-part variation and ensuring consistent dimensional accuracy for critical medical fittings.

2. S136 Stainless Steel (HRC48-52) for Medical Durability

  • Corrosion Resistance: S136 stainless steel offers exceptional resistance to corrosion and oxidation, making it ideal for medical applications requiring repeated sterilization (gamma/EtO).

  • Long Service Life: Heat-treated to HRC48-52, the mold maintains high hardness and wear resistance, preventing cavity degradation even with continuous production of PP parts.

  • Superior Polishability: The steel’s fine grain structure supports mirror-polished cavity surfaces, ensuring transparent PP parts have clear, defect-free finishes suitable for visual inspection in medical use.

3. Large Submarine Gate System for Clean, Efficient Molding

The large submarine gate design is optimized for PP medical parts:
  • Balanced Flow: The enlarged gate ensures fast, uniform melt filling, eliminating short shots or flow marks on the part.

  • Automatic Gate Break: The hidden gate separates automatically during ejection, leaving no visible gate residue and eliminating the need for manual trimming. This reduces contamination risks and labor costs, critical for sterile medical component production.

  • Low Shear Stress: The gate geometry minimizes shear heat buildup, preserving the biocompatible properties of medical-grade PP resins.

4. Polished Cavity Surface for Medical-Grade Clarity

The mold cavity undergoes precision polishing to achieve a smooth, scratch-free surface finish. This ensures:
  • Transparent PP parts with crystal-clear clarity, free of flow lines or haze, suitable for visual verification of fluid flow in medical applications.

  • Easy demolding without damaging delicate connector geometries or introducing particulate contamination.

  • Laboratory and diagnostic devices

  • Sterile fluid transfer assemblies

Key benefits include:
  • Sterile Compatibility: S136 steel and polished surfaces support repeated sterilization without degradation.

  • Consistent Quality: 8-cavity balanced design ensures every connector meets tight dimensional tolerances for leak-proof assembly.

  • Cost Efficiency: High-volume production reduces per-unit costs for medical device manufacturers.

  • Regulatory Readiness: Molded parts meet medical-grade material and cleanliness standards, supporting regulatory compliance.


Quality & Compliance

All molds are manufactured to ISO 13485-aligned standards, with strict CNC machining, heat treatment, and quality validation. Every mold undergoes full trial testing to verify dimensional accuracy, gate function, and surface finish. We provide complete documentation, including steel material certificates, mold validation reports, and process records, to support customer medical device registration.

FAQ

Q1: Why choose S136 steel for medical PP connector molds?
A1: S136 stainless steel offers excellent corrosion resistance, high hardness, and superior polishability. It withstands repeated sterilization cycles and prevents metal leaching, making it ideal for medical-grade PP molding.
Q2: What are the advantages of a large submarine gate for medical parts?
A2: The large submarine gate ensures balanced melt flow, automatic gate separation, and no visible residue, eliminating manual trimming and reducing contamination risks in sterile medical components.
Q3: How long is the service life of this mold?
A3: With proper maintenance, the S136 steel mold supports 500,000–800,000 shots of medical-grade PP parts, maintaining consistent quality throughout its lifespan.
Q4: Is this mold compatible with other medical plastics besides PP?
A4: While optimized for PP, the mold can also be adapted for other medical-grade plastics such as PE or ABS, with minor adjustments to molding parameters.
