Automotive Injection Molding Applications from Chen Hsong

Automotive injection molding at Chen Hsong covers bumpers, door panels, interior trims, lamp lenses, radiator tanks and under-bonnet components. BYD and FAW Group are among the manufacturers running Chen Hsong machines, with exterior body parts typically calling for 550 to 6,500 tonnes of clamping force.

Why Two-Platen Dominates Automotive Molding

A bumper mold is large, heavy and deep. Two-platen machines carry it in a shorter footprint than a toggle machine of equal force, spread clamping load evenly across the platen face, and give the daylight that deep draws need. Chen Hsong has more than 1,000 two-platen units in service worldwide. Lamp assemblies are a different problem again: a clear lens and a coloured housing molded in one cycle on multi-material machines, where rotary platen positioning accuracy decides whether the bond line comes out clean or bleeds.

Consistency Across a Model Programme

Programmes run for years, and process drift eventually shows up as a warranty claim. Precision Hydraulics™ holds ±0.05% repeatability on the critical axes, NON-STOP™ is built around uninterrupted running, and iChen™ AI Molder monitors and corrects parameters shot by shot rather than waiting for a technician to notice.
