Transfer molding can be done with
the use of a hydraulic ram or a punch and pot built into the
mold. Transfer molding is best for medium sized usage part
and with parts with molded inserts. Transfer molding will
typically
result in better tolerance control than compression molding.
Advantages of transfer molding
Fiber loadings can have as as high
as
50-60% (Volume)
Insert architecture can be very
complicated
Tighter tolerances can be
maintained than compression molding
result in better tolerance control than compression molding.
