  • ISO 9001, CE, CCC: What These Certifications Actually Mean for Your Equipment Purchase

    When you're evaluating LSR injection molding machines from an overseas supplier, certification logos on a company website can start to blur together. ISO 9001, CE, CCC — they all sound reassuring, but they don't all mean the same thing, and they don't all matter for the same reasons. Understanding what each certification actually covers will help you ask better questions during due diligence and avoid assuming a certificate guarantees something it doesn't.

How to Solve Common Problems in Liquid Silicone Injection Molding Production

04/10/2026

Liquid silicone injection molding production is a complex process involving multiple links such as material selection, parameter setting, and mold matching. Many enterprises will encounter various problems in the production process, which affect production efficiency and product quality. As a professional manufacturer of liquid silicone intelligent equipment, TYM summarizes years of production experience and provides targeted solutions for common problems in liquid silicone injection molding production, helping enterprises avoid losses and improve production stability.

One of the most common problems is product surface defects, such as bubbles, scratches and uneven texture. The main reasons for these defects are impure silicone materials, improper temperature setting, or air entering during the injection process. To solve this problem, enterprises first need to choose high-quality liquid silicone materials and conduct strict inspection before use to ensure that there are no impurities or moisture. At the same time, adjust the temperature of the injection machine and the mold according to the material characteristics, and use a vacuum defoaming system to remove air in the silicone, avoiding bubbles in the product.

Another common problem is unstable product size, which is mainly caused by inaccurate parameter setting of the injection machine or mold wear. TYM liquid silicone injection molding machines are equipped with high-precision sensors and intelligent control systems, which can accurately control injection pressure, speed and mold clamping force, ensuring the stability of product size. For mold wear, enterprises should regularly inspect and maintain the mold, timely repair or replace worn parts, and use wear-resistant materials to extend the service life of the mold, thereby ensuring the consistency of product size.

In addition, the problem of low production efficiency is also plaguing many enterprises. The main reasons include unreasonable process layout, backward equipment performance and unskilled operation of employees. TYM can provide customized production process solutions for enterprises, optimize the production line layout, and improve the continuity of production. At the same time, TYM’s injection machines have high automation and energy-saving performance, which can reduce manual intervention and energy consumption. In addition, TYM provides professional operation training to help employees master the operation skills of the equipment and improve work efficiency.
