Manufacturing Process

Injection

Injection molding (British English: molding) is a manufacturing for producing

parts from both thermoplastic and thermosetting plastic materials. Material is
fed into a heated barrel, mixed, and forced into a mold cavity where it cools and
hardens to the configuration of the mold cavity.

After a product is designed, usually by an industrial designer or an engineer,

molds are made by a mold maker (or toolmaker) from metal, usually either steel
or aluminum, and precision-machined to form the features of the desired part.
Injection molding is widely used for manufacturing a variety of parts, from the
smallest component to entire body panels of cars.

Step 1: Customer Order

When Poly Vision takes an order from a customer, a record will be created and information is
gathered. The order will be submitted for processing after the customer provides the billing address,
shipping address, and payment information. If there are any backorders, predefined discounts or any
other conditions, they are applied to the order.

Step 2: Working Schedule

Material evaluation/Risk assessment is designed to help assess and improve client's product design,
workmanship, functionality, reliability and safety, ensure the injected moulds are meeting your
specifications and relevant international standards or legal regulations of intended market. In the
end, a work schedule is established after the order is confirmed and each department's work is
assigned.

Step 3: Material Purchasing

As soon as the work schedule is arranged, material purchasing is conducted by our procurement
staff. Procurement staff performs all activities related to supply chain management. This includes,
acting in a consultative role between Poly Vision and suppliers to inspect the companies, selecting
optimal suppliers and maintain records of goods ordered and received. In addition, procurement
department is also responsible for researching and evaluating suppliers, maintaining supplier
database with evaluation points based on price, quality, selection, service, support & the supplier's
reputation and history.

Step 4: Granular Plastic Processing

With Injection Molding, granular plastic is fed by gravity from a hopper into a heated barrel. As the
granules are slowly moved forward by a screw-type plunger, the plastic is forced into a heated

chamber, where it is melted. Injection speeds are usually determined by performing viscosity curves.
Process windows are performed varying the melt temperatures and holding pressures.

Step 5: Injection Mould Set Up

Injection mould set up is to install mould tool on mould machine.

Step 6: Data Setting

Mould injection machine's data is set for the first production on this stage. The machine is in
excellent working condition and is capable of processing commodity as well as various plastic
products.

Step 7: First Production Checking

Once the first production is made and the quality is assured, we will start manufacturing them on a
large scale.

Step 8: Mass Production

In the current mould-making industries, the challenge is to shorten the mould lead-time while
maintaining the desired quality. This is one of the main demands from customers so as to maintain a
competitive edge over the competition. During the mass production, mould products are made with
high-standard.

Step 9: Quality Control

The final exam of the products to ensure the quality of each production. Poly Vision's recent
purchase of CMM is to make sure they got the job done properly.

Step 10: Packing

The packing staff check submitted packing sample according customer's packing specification and
perform relevant transportation tests to make sure their products are well protected and shipped
safely. Poly Vision assures your injection moulds are made correctly to your specifications and are
well packed before delivery.

Step 11: Storage

Poly Vision's massive warehouse is one of their advantages which gives clients more options for their
material storage and delivery needs.

Step 12: Delivery

Poly Vision's delivery team performs effectively. After plastic productions are delivered, we continue
to provide our services until the first vehicle rolls off the line.
