What is the distribution line?
The distribution line is a place on a product or component where two or more forms have met during the casting process. A number of considerations go to the location of the distribution line to maintain the overall integrity of the work. Usually, as part of the completion process, the machine crushes and smoothes the line of distribution, so it is no longer visible if any other material escapes when casting the object. As an operator, the material pours into a mold, the air can escape around the division line and prevent the formation of bubbles. When the material sets and people expand the molds, the finished object falls out. It can be treated with finishing processes such as grinding, painting, etc. Other forms can be more complex, with multiple components for solving special shapes and design considerations.
6 even functioning, provided that it is not visible after completion, it has to think about the best position in terms of stretching the mold without damaging the product and providing support while pressed the set of sets. If, for exampleThe fragile component, this part may deform during pressing or breaking up when the operator removes the mold. A similarly poor location can prevent air bubble leakage, causing problems with the finished product.If the molds do not fulfill exactly, the material is leached into the space between them and creates a situation called a forming flash. The operator can excess this excess material aircraft, sand, scratching or cut off and then smooth the base to match the rest of the object. This problem is more common in cheap forms, and in some cases manufacturers will not be bothering; For example, cheap plastic toys can have a visible line around the center and show where the molds have disintegrated.
In the specification for products made with forming, technical drawings will include forms illustrations and discussion on the location of the division line. Mold manufacturer confirms that proposals are suitable for application and can propose changes to deal with concern. For example, there might be worries that it will be difficult toE -serve any press flash, because the division line is inserted into the corner of the mold, leaving the product with a rough, unfinished look.
