ARPRO Moulded Parts - Moulding and Techniques

reusable industrial packaging
This reusable industrial packaging is for cylindrical automotive parts, and protects the parts while helping make packing and unpacking more efficient.

Steam chest moulds are the foundation of advanced moulding techniques


ARPRO® EPP beads are moulded into finished parts with cost- and time-effective aluminium steam chest moulds, often with multiple cavities for higher production rates.  Depending on the size of the part and suitability of the material, steam chest moulds can represent significant cost and time savings compared to moulds required for alternative plastics technologies, such as injection moulding.

Steam chest moulds feature hollow spaces within each half, and the walls of each half are hollow to convey steam and pressure to the interior of the closed mould.

When the mould halves are closed, ARPRO® beads are injected into the void. Steam and pressure is then released into the mould void to fuse the ARPRO® beads together into the finished shape.

Specialised moulding techniques

Beyond the basics there is a range of advanced, specialised moulding techniques developed by JSP that add versatility and, ultimately, added product value to manufacturers and end-users.
