Savings realized not only on the resin but color and additives like UV inhibitor. In many cases, the less expensive core constitutes over 60% of the total part volume.<\/p>\n<p>More exotic (or lower volume) applications include soft over rigid, like a TPE over anything with some modulus. Also, structural foam parts with cosmetic skins; likewise, fiber or glass filled parts with cosmetic surfaces.<\/p>\n<p>Co-injection or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.acomold.com\/what-is-overmolding.html\">overmolding<\/a> for a &#8220;soft-touch&#8221; or for a cosmetically clean surface over a fiber reinforced core is understandable. There is a value added feature there.<\/p>\n<p>But using this process as a means to take up space will never be as cost effective as producing a part in a single shot single material if the design of the part is correct and robust enough to meet the customer requirements&#8212;&#8211; unless you are going for a very heavy walled or heavy duty product. I worked several years for a company that produced containers, buckets and pails for both the consumer and commercial industry and we considered this process for a long time, but could never justify the cost. At the time we were the world&#8217;s leader and most recognized brand name in the industry, if not world for these types of products.<\/p>\n<p>No matter which way you look at it, this process requires the part to be thicker than otherwise necessary and thus run a longer cycle than a single skin material, which translates into a higher cost. Unless there is a definite benefit that is obvious to the customer, he will always pick up the one with the lower sticker price.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the commodity products area, there are lots of production buckets, pails and containers co-injected using the method described (Two shot), because it can be adapted to most any injection molding machine.
