Parting Line Design for Injection Molding: Location is Everything
An injection molding parting line is the primary boundary where the two halves of a mold—the core (A-side) and cavity (B-side)—meet and seal under clamping pressure. In injection mold design, determining the location of this interface is the very first step in Design for Manufacturability (DFM). The placement of the parting line directly controls tooling […]
