What Is Polyethylene (Orina) Moldura de inyección?
Polietileno (Orina) is a thermoplastic polymer derived from ethylene monomers, celebrated for its versatility, bajo costo, y excelente resistencia química. Moldura de inyección is a manufacturing process where molten plastic is injected into a mold cavity, enfriado, and ejected as a finished part. Juntos, PE injection molding creates high-quality, consistent components for countless industries.
Definiciones clave & Process Overview
| Término | Definición |
| Polietileno (Orina) | Un peso ligero, flexible thermoplastic with high impact strength and resistance to chemicals/water. |
| Moldura de inyección | A high-volume process: plastic pellets → melted → injected into mold → cooled → demolded. |
| Mold Cavity | The hollow space in a mold that shapes the final PE part (can be single or multi-cavity for mass production). |
Core Material Properties of PE
PE’s unique properties make it ideal for injection molding. Below are the most critical traits for manufacturers and buyers:
- Densidad: Ranges from 0.910–0.965 g/cm³ (low-density LDPE to high-density HDPE).
- Punto de fusión: 105–135 ° C (lower than many plastics, reducing energy costs in molding).
- Resistencia química: Impervious to acids, alcoholes, y agua (critical for medical and packaging applications).
- Fuerza de impacto: Remains flexible even at low temperatures (ideal for automotive and consumer goods).
Reciclabalidad: Most PE grades are 100% reciclable, Alinearse con los objetivos de sostenibilidad.

The PE Injection Molding Process: Step-by-Step Excellence
Un suave, well-managed process is key to producing high-quality PE parts. Our process follows five core stages, each optimized for PE’s unique properties.
Paso 1: Preparación de material
- Pellet Selection: Choose the right PE grade (P.EJ., HDPE para la rigidez, LDPE for flexibility) and add aditivos (Estabilizadores UV, colorantes, or flame retardants) según sea necesario.
- El secado: While PE is moisture-resistant, we pre-dry pellets at 60–80°C for 2–4 hours to remove any surface moisture (prevents bubbles in final parts).
- Feeding: Pellets are fed into the injection machine’s hopper, where they move to the heating barrel.
Paso 2: Mold Design
- Colaboración: Our engineers work with you to design molds that account for PE’s shrinkage rate (1.5–5%, higher than ABS).
- Sistema de enfriamiento: Molds include precision cooling channels to ensure uniform cooling (critical for PE’s low melting point).
- Prototype Testing: We 3D-print mold prototypes first to validate design before full production (saves time and cost).
Paso 3: Setting Injection Parameters
PE’s low viscosity requires careful parameter tuning to avoid defects (P.EJ., flash or warping). Below are our standard parameters for HDPE (the most common PE grade):
| Parámetro | Ideal Range for HDPE | Propósito |
| Temperatura del barril | 160–220 ° C | Ensures PE melts evenly without degradation. |
| Inyección | 50–120 MPa | Fills mold cavities completely (critical for thin-walled parts). |
| Tiempo de enfriamiento | 10–30 segundos | Prevents warping; balances speed and quality. |
Paso 4: Operaciones posteriores al moldeo
Después de demoldar, parts may undergo:
- Guarnición: Eliminar el exceso de plástico (destello) with automated tools.
- Asamblea: Joining parts via welding or adhesives (for complex components).
Inspección: Final QC checks for dimensional accuracy and surface quality.
Materiales: Choosing the Right PE for Your Project
Not all PE is the same—selecting the right grade ensures your parts meet performance and cost goals. We offer a full range of PE materials, plus recycled options.
Types of PE for Injection Molding
| Tipo PE | Key Traits | Aplicaciones comunes |
| Low-Density PE (LDPE) | Flexible, suave, good impact resistance. | Bienes de consumo (juguetes, botellas de apretón), packaging films. |
| High-Density PE (PEAD) | Rígido, fuerte, high chemical resistance. | Piezas automotrices (tanques de combustible), dispositivos médicos (barriles de jeringa), embalaje (caps, contenedores). |
| Linear Low-Density PE (Lelte) | Stretchable, resistente a los pinchazos, more durable than LDPE. | Agricultural films, flexible packaging (bolsas), sports equipment. |
Material Selection Tips
- Prioritize performance: For chemical exposure (P.EJ., dispositivos médicos), choose HDPE. For flexibility (P.EJ., juguetes), pick LDPE.
- Consider cost: LDPE is the most affordable; HDPE costs slightly more but offers better durability.
Abrazar la sostenibilidad: Nuestro recycled PE (rPE) is made from post-consumer waste and meets 80% of the performance of virgin PE—ideal for eco-friendly brands.
Tratamiento superficial: Mejora de la estética & Funcionalidad
PE’s natural surface is smooth but can be modified to improve appearance, agarre, or compatibility with other materials. We offer four core surface treatments:
| Tratamiento | Proceso | Beneficio |
| Acabado superficial | Polishing or sandblasting to remove imperfections (P.EJ., arañazos). | Creates a sleek, aspecto profesional; improves paint adhesion. |
| Textura | Agregar patrones (P.EJ., mate, acanalado) to the mold cavity. | Mejora el agarre (para herramientas, mangos) or hides fingerprints (bienes de consumo). |
| Revestimiento | Applying a thin layer (P.EJ., poliuretano) to the part surface. | Aumenta la resistencia química (para piezas médicas) or UV protection (outdoor components). |
| Painting/Printing | Spray-painting or pad-printing logos/colors. | Improves branding (P.EJ., automotive parts with company logos) o estética (juguetes). |
