TPE overmolding, also known as two-color/multi-color injection molding, is an advanced manufacturing process in which TPE material is coated onto another substrate.

In injection molding production, the color uniformity of TPE raw materials directly impacts product appearance and competitiveness. Due to TPE's multi-component blending characteristics, issues like color spots, color differences, and flow marks are prone to occur. Precise control across six core processes is essential. Let's explore these with the Zhongsu Wang editorial team.

TPE materials have gradually increased their usage in various occasions due to their advantages of easy processing, weather resistance, soft hand feel, and easy coloring. However, products made from TPE are inevitably prone to aging after prolonged use.

TPE materials can be directly injection molded, extruded, and poured without the need for vulcanization. Extrusion molding, as one of the main processing methods for TPE materials, has developed into a mature process for TPE tension tubes, TPE headphone cables, TPE sealing strips, TPE tension bands, TPE automotive sealing strips, TPE anisotropic plastic materials, and other products.

Among numerous polymer materials, TPE raw materials possess both rubber elasticity and plastic processing properties, and are widely used in various industries such as toys, automobiles, medical devices, and daily necessities.

TPE encapsulation molding, also known as two-color/multi-color injection molding, is an advanced manufacturing process that involves coating TPE material onto another substrate.
