Customer Case | Vertical Injection Molding Machine Application

This customer case introduces how Suzhou Lizhu Machinery Co., Ltd. provided a vertical injection molding machine production upgrade solution for an automotive parts manufacturer in Thailand.

Based on the customer's product characteristics, molding processes, and actual production requirements, Suzhou Lizhu Machinery provided standard vertical injection molding machine and vertical insert molding machine solutions to help the customer solve issues including unstable production performance, low operation efficiency, and product consistency fluctuations.

As a professional manufacturer specializing in vertical injection molding machines, Suzhou Lizhu Machinery has been serving overseas manufacturing companies for many years, providing reliable plastic molding equipment and production solutions for industries including automotive components, electronic products, and precision plastic parts.

This successful project further demonstrates the application capability of Suzhou Lizhu vertical injection molding machine in automotive component insert molding production.

Customer Background: Growing Automotive Orders Require Production Equipment Upgrade

The customer in this project is an automotive parts manufacturer located in Thailand, specializing in the production of automotive wiring connectors, plastic fixing components, sensor housings, and metal insert molded parts.

With the continuous development of Thailand's automotive manufacturing industry and the increasing demand for new energy vehicle components, the customer's order volume continued to grow. However, the existing injection molding equipment gradually became unable to meet the increasing production requirements.

During daily production, the customer's old machines mainly faced several challenges:

Reduced equipment stability after long-term operation;

• Longer adjustment time for injection parameters;

• Insufficient positioning accuracy during metal insert placement;

• Fluctuations in product consistency between batches;

• Production interruptions caused by equipment maintenance.

Because automotive components require high reliability and dimensional accuracy, even small variations during production may affect subsequent assembly and product performance.

To improve production efficiency and maintain stable product quality, the customer began searching for a more suitable vertical injection molding machine solution.

After comparing different equipment suppliers, the customer finally selected Suzhou Lizhu Machinery as its equipment partner.

Equipment Solution: Customized Vertical Injection Molding Solution Based on Production Requirements

During the project cooperation, the technical team of Suzhou Lizhu Machinery analyzed the customer's product structure, material characteristics, production cycle requirements, and factory layout.

Based on the customer's requirements for insert molding and continuous production, the project adopted standard vertical injection molding machine as the main production equipment and vertical insert molding machine for specific metal insert overmolding applications.

The standard vertical injection molding machine adopts a proven vertical clamping and vertical injection structure. Its open working platform allows operators to place metal inserts conveniently, improving production operation efficiency.

The compact machine structure helps customers optimize production space and improve workshop utilization.

For automotive component production requirements, the machine control system allows adjustment of injection speed, injection pressure, and holding pressure parameters, ensuring more stable molding performance.

The vertical insert molding machine effectively meets the production requirements of combining metal components with plastic materials, improving product consistency and molding quality.

Project Implementation: Fast Installation and Commissioning Support Smooth Production Start

After the equipment arrived at the customer's factory in Thailand, the engineering team of Suzhou Lizhu Machinery provided technical support for equipment installation, parameter adjustment, and operator training.

During the commissioning process, engineers optimized injection parameters according to the customer's actual products to ensure stable production performance.

After trial production verification, the customer officially placed the new vertical injection molding machine into mass production.

Compared with the previous equipment, the new machine provided significant improvements in operating convenience, production stability, and continuous production capability.

Application Results: Improved Product Consistency and Smoother Production Process

After the equipment was put into operation, the customer reported that the production process became more stable and quality control became easier.

With the application of Suzhou Lizhu vertical injection molding machine, the customer achieved improvements including:

• More stable injection molding process;

• Improved product consistency;

• Higher insert molding efficiency;

• Reduced manual adjustment time;

• Easier equipment maintenance.

The new production solution helped the customer reduce production uncertainty, improve overall manufacturing efficiency, and better meet the requirements of automotive component mass production.

Customer Feedback: Reliable Equipment Meets Long-Term Production Requirements

The customer's production management team commented that the standard vertical injection molding machine and vertical insert molding machine provided by Suzhou Lizhu Machinery are easy to operate, stable in performance, and suitable for long-term automotive component production.

Compared with the previous equipment, the new machines have achieved noticeable improvements in production stability, operation experience, and maintenance convenience.

Currently, the customer has applied Suzhou Lizhu vertical molding machine solutions to multiple automotive component production projects and plans to further expand production capacity according to future market demand.
