The Difference between Dies and Molds and Their Processes
While often used interchangeably, dies and molds serve distinct purposes based on the material’s state during shaping:
- Molds: Shape materials in a molten or liquid state (e.g., plastics, molten metals) as they cool, often creating hollow or intricate internal features.
- Dies: Cut, shape, or form materials in a solid state (e.g., sheet metal) through pressure, usually producing solid products or specific profiles.
These tools are central to key manufacturing processes:
- Injection Molding: Uses molds to create complex plastic parts by injecting molten plastic. Choose injection mold components that withstand high heat and pressure with effective cooling.
- Die Casting: A molding-like process where molten metal is injected into a metal die cavity. It excels at intricate metal parts. Select die casting mold components from heat-resistant tool steels with wear-resistant inserts.
- Stamping Uses dies to cut, punch, or bend sheet metal in its solid state. It’s efficient for the mass production of consistent metal components. For stamped die components, opt for hardened tool steels, precision-ground punches, and robust die springs.
