1. Different production methods
Vacuum molded products are formed by heating the sheet material, then pushing it out and bonding it with the mold through suction, and then cooling it to shape.
Injection molding is the process of squeezing the melted plastic onto an injection mold under pressure, and then cooling it to form the product.
2. Different types of uses
Vacuum forming is commonly used in electronic products, digital products, toys, stationery, hardware accessories, etc. The types of vacuum forming products include vacuum forming boxes, vacuum forming foam shells, vacuum forming trays, vacuum forming covers, and so on.
Injection molding is commonly used for phone cases, computer cases, plastic cups, mouse cases, hardware accessory cases, etc,
3. Different production cycles
Vacuum molded products are a hot and soft production mode that allows multiple molds to vacuum multiple products at once. The production cycle of injection molds is relatively long, which is produced by pressing multiple products from a single mold shape, without the need for further punching to directly form products.
4. From a practical application perspective
Vacuum molding belongs to the packaging form of products, while injection molding belongs to the product form of items. The same thing is that both belong to the plastic category of products.
