The design of a dip molding system requires several factors to be considered. We have included a guide to help define the scope of your system requirements. The basic system design will be primarily based on the product range to be processed and the production requirements.

Product specifications.

• What is the largest part the system will process? Include length and diameter (or width and depth.)

• How much does the heaviest product or form weigh?

• What materials are being utilized?

• Does the part require a primer or release agent?

• What is the required dip accuracy?

• Does the range of products to be processed vary greatly in size and weight?

Process requirements.

• How many products will be processed in an 8 hour shift? Does the system require automatic sorting or automatic stripping?

• Are there specific orientation requirements for loading or unloading frames?

• How many different colors would you like to be utilized simultaneously?
  

• Is this process currently being performed at your facility? By a vendor?
