Mould

The light guide project centers on slender-part deformation, optical-surface protection, gate/ejector avoidance, dimensional stability — helping you understand the main structural risks and mould approach before submitting drawings.

Product &
mould overview

Light Guide mould, focused on slender-part deformation and optical-surface protection.

For a light-guide part, define the light-entry, light-output and locating features before discussing mould release. Long slender sections and handling contact need to be reviewed together so that surface marks and shape changes can be assessed separately.

Mould focus

For the light guide project we recommend front-loading risk into the DFM stage, building the mould solution around slender-part deformation, optical-surface protection, gate/ejector avoidance, dimensional stability.

01
slender-part deformation

The project starts by assessing slender-part deformation, confirming structural, cosmetic and assembly risks to reduce later mould rework.

02
optical-surface protection

In the mould-solution stage we focus on optical-surface protection, arranging core, cavity, inserts, ejection and cooling for stable moulding.

03
gate/ejector avoidance

During trial-mould we watch gate/ejector avoidance on the sample part, tuning venting, ejection or local structure to the actual part condition.

04
dimensional stability

Before mass production we keep reviewing dimensional stability, keeping the automotive lighting moulds project consistent in dimensions, appearance and assembly feedback.

Project review information

Send the following to start an assessment: 3D/2D drawings, sample photos, material requirements, expected quantity and lead time — we assess from structure, material, mould risk and trial-mould plan.

ApplicationLight Guide and similar plastic parts — assessable from drawings, samples or product requirements.
Review inputsLight-guide model, specified resin, optical zones, locating references, allowed handling/contact areas and inspection requirements.
Design decisionsCompare gate and release options with the controlled optical surfaces and slender geometry. Confirm which surface or location changes require product approval.
Sample verificationIdentify samples and record handling conditions; inspect marks, shape and locating features separately. Evaluate optical results only with the specified test method.
