Recently, Mr. Song of Nanchang got confused and complained to Taili Plastic Machinery through wechat that why is it more expensive to produce products with injection molding machines by himself than to buy them directly from his peers?
Mr. Song mainly manufactures PTFE tape. He used to purchase the fixator from other manufacturers. As the quality became worse year by year, but the price was more and more expensive, he decided to buy his own injection molding machine. Because this product’s profits rely on the sales volume. In his idea, if each fixator can save 0.01 yuan, it is also worth it. At the end of last year, he ordered the injection molding machine from some machine manufacturer, and with the help of sales staff, the machine could work normally. However, after a period of production, Mr. Song got worried. At present, the mold of PTFE tape fixator he produces is of eight cavities, with a cycle of about 20 seconds. When calculating the monthly cost according to the material weight, power consumption and cycle, he found that the cost of each PTFE tape fixator produced was about 0.035 yuan without considering the machine loss, worker's wages and rent. However, if he directly purchases from his peers cost of each is 0.03 yuan, which even fewer than he produces by himself. It takes more time and energy to produce while no money is save. Instead, directly purchasing from peers is much cheaper.

We told Mr. Song that in fact, the profit of products like PTFE tape fixator is very low. Thus, the requirements on machine, mould and debugging process will be relatively higher. After checking the parameters of Mr. Song's injection molding machine, we found that the mold opening time and mold closing time were set too slow, and there was no further optimization. Moreover, the injection time was too long and the injection speed was too slow, which made the weight of the product heavier than that of the peers.
Tali Plastic Machinery helps Mr. Song adjust the parameters and cycle time has been reduced by about 1 second, and the production cost has been reduced slightly.
We tell Mr. Song that it doesn't matter if you are new in the injection molding industry and don't know the industry, we must find reliable supplier to cooperate. Except the performance of the machine, the level of the adjustment master can also largely determine the production efficiency and profit of the injection molding machine.
Taili Plastic Machinery always keeps in mind that what a good injection molding machine factory should do is to help improving the capacity and boosting the profits, rather than offer the similar products the customers need. This is also what Taili Plastic Machinery keeps doing.
