There are three ways to mold silicone: brush mold, injection mold, and wrapping mold. So, how to determine which mold opening method is good for your product when re molding? In fact, this is a skill. Below, we will analyze this problem in detail.

The selection of a suitable mold opening method is for the convenience of demolding and the accurate imitation of the mother mold model to ensure the overall simulation effect.

Before making a choice, we can divide the mother mold of the model into two situations: one is the complex and uneven appearance and texture, and the other is the relatively simple and smooth overall with rules. From here, we can easily distinguish between the two mold opening methods.

Therefore, if the size is large and the pattern is complex and fine, it is better to choose the brush mold (sheet mold) method, If the surface texture is simple, smooth, and regular, choose the injection mold or wrapping mold opening method. Another reminder: Generally, injection molds use silicone with relatively soft hardness, as this makes demolding easier and does not damage the mother mold inside the silicone mold.
