Can peek material be injection molded?

 

The peek material can be injection molded. PEEK is a high-temperature special engineering plastic and needs to be maintained at about 350 degrees. This requires the heating section of the injection molding machine barrel to continuously and stably provide a heating temperature above 350 degrees. The melting temperature of the peek material at high temperature is relatively high, and the viscosity in the molten state is relatively large, and the pressure required for injection molding is higher, and the wear of the screw is greater. In addition, peek injection molding requires heating, which is different from ordinary injection molding. It is recommended to find a manufacturer that specializes in peek injection molding to avoid certain technical risks.

 

gz ideal has been focusing on the PEEK field for 15 years, with continuous profile extrusion lines, large horizontal injection molding machines and several vertical injection molding machines, large molding presses, high-precision CNC lathes, CNC machining centers, CNC engraving machines, and wire cutting machines , EDM, rotary cutting machine, other turning, milling, drilling and grinding machines and other mechanical processing equipment, according to customer drawings or sample requirements for design and processing, manufacturing injection and compression molds, until processing samples and mass production.
