I'm working with the local civil protection director to make a prototype of a torpedo style rescue floatation device to be donated and mounted on natural wood posts at our most historically dangerous beaches. These torpedoes are abusively priced ($150 USD), not available locally here in México and not available in all-natural materials but I'm working to change that. We need a local bioplastics supplier with materials well suited for this purpose with sheet plastic that can be manually heat-formed over a mold. And for a much larger scale impact, we need an estimate of the cost of mold that could be used with recycled plastics, bioplastics and biodegradable plastics also to injection mold them for us. If we can raise the funds to pay for the mold ourselves, the devices can be relatively very inexpensive which will make them very accessible and help save lives everywhere they're used.
This was shockingly useful, engaging, and interesting. Thanks so much! Quick question, so for blown mold products like hospital/tattoo/safety wash bottles, can you estimate the production cost at scale per unit and why then why some of these items are on Amazon or Walmart retailing at $5-$11 per unit? I'm just trying get a feeling of the markup. Also, would you know how much injection molding is done domestically (North America, I'm in the US but as one of our wonderful neighbors to the north I''d imagine it's similar). Thanks if you give any answers but if not, great vid and best of luck!
Hey Tristan, Kaywood Elliott here from Newfoundland. I was hoping to video chat with you so I could show you the two pvc products I need to make in a production format. Reach out when you are able
Is there a plastic manufacturing method that can successfully produce plastic parts and structures that were created through generative design? I'm talking specifically about the organic 3D structures that are light weight and very strong. Are these shapes too complex for traditional plastic manufacturing?
Great video. But I guess I'm one step too far. Where do the molds come from and how are they made? I have an idea that would be a similar to a dental flosser but for a completely different application, I'm not sure it would work but if it did work, a billion units would be sold. I know this, it's not in existence yet. I have no patent, I have nothing but an idea. I know you could make it but how it would work remains to be seen!
We looking to marble looking blending color patterns for dental retainer case. What kind of mode do we need and how to blend the color in the way that one desire?
We used a product called Play Colors. Each different color pellet melts at slightly different temps. When injected into the mold the colors stay separated. resulting in a marbled appearance. Used for poly plastics
If I post a photo of a plastic object that exists apparently only in China, would you be able to choose an economical method to reproduce it in volume?
hello, yes it can be. If you are looking to build a new product check out our video ua-cam.com/video/48T3XYla4Z0/v-deo.html it is a guide for understanding where to start the plastic process
The video is not very helpful in terms of understanding the process, giving examples of objects with each process and better way of drawing and presenting would have been more helpful. Great efforts, thanks!
I'm trying to start a business making beads out of recycled plastic. This is an incredibly helpful video! I really appreciate your channel!
hope it goes well
i am a plastic recycler from UAE - let mw know how I can help

Nice Good Luck!
Thank you so much
Still trying to figure out how they make hollow parts!
Good Proformance thank u
Thank you for the video this was very helpful
Nice video
Thank you!
how are the dies heated in compression molding?

We are in Shenzhen, China

Currently, no. Other than 3D printing there is no way to get those shapes into mass market.
Informative thnx

Their is still a waight problem with everything's things?
Hi
I want to make few parts of bags, will you pls help me to chose cheap best moulding machines
If I post a photo of a plastic object that exists apparently only in China, would you be able to choose an economical method to reproduce it in volume?
I want to start making plastic dishes .what do i require .
Find out WHY Recycling DOES NOT WORK in our latest video :) - ua-cam.com/video/HK2-soav-k8/v-deo.html
Very important video
I need a machine like that how can I get it??how much??price?
Plz tell me is mould making is expensive ??
hello, yes it can be. If you are looking to build a new product check out our video ua-cam.com/video/48T3XYla4Z0/v-deo.html it is a guide for understanding where to start the plastic process
Price plz
you break I buy?
says six...
*shows four
**purging thought process
*shows six
complete cycle time
What is single use plastic? Why do they say such things? Why is there to be no more plastic?
The video is not very helpful in terms of understanding the process, giving examples of objects with each process and better way of drawing and presenting would have been more helpful. Great efforts, thanks!
Hello. Please I never help. I am making a plastic recycling machine
I break you make
Nice movie! Thanks for sharing.
Greatwall mold is making plastic injection mold too. You can reach me by email.
