Medical Infusion Set Mold

Infusion pump mold structure and components

Upper Die and Lower Die:

The upper and lower dies work together to form the closed structure of the infusion pump.

The material is formed into the standard infusion pump shape through injection molding or compression molding.

Core Holder:

Secures the core component of the mold, ensuring it does not move or deform during processing.

Helps maintain mold stability during the molding process, reducing the risk of shifting or deformation.

Guide Block:

Used to locate and secure the relative position of the upper and lower dies, ensuring accuracy during the molding process.

Helps maintain consistency and stability during the molding process.

Locking Pin:

Helps secure the mold during compression molding, preventing shifting or deformation.

Ensures a tight fit between the upper and lower dies, improving the product's seal and stability.

Flow Channel Design:

Ensures uniform material flow during cooling, preventing problems such as bubbles and cracks.

Especially important for plastic molds, good flow channel design can reduce the risk of defects during processing.

Locking Boss:

Locking Pin:

Helps maintain mold position during compression molding, preventing shifting or deformation.

Ensures a tight fit between the upper and lower dies, improving the product's seal and stability. Plate:

A boss structure is installed at the bottom of the mold to secure and clamp the workpiece, ensuring stability during the molding process.

This improves the mold's clamping performance during the injection or compression molding process.

Other Auxiliary Components:

Depending on the specific design requirements, auxiliary components such as guide plates and locating pins may also be included to enhance the mold's flexibility and adaptability.

Steps for Using an Infusion Set Mold

Determine Design Requirements

Define the standard specifications, dimensions, channel diameter, length, and angles for the infusion set.

Determine the material type (e.g., plastic, metal) and its performance requirements (e.g., strength, temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, etc.).

Perform CAD Modeling

Use computer-aided design (CAD) software to design the infusion set. Accurately model the 3D structure of the infusion pump mold.

Generate an optimized mold design based on the drug properties, infusion bottle geometry, and drive mechanism requirements.

Cavity Processing:

Use molding processes such as injection molding and compression molding to shape metal or plastic materials into the basic structure of the infusion pump.

Precision machining of the infusion bottle ensures dimensional consistency and surface smoothness.

Drive Mechanism Manufacturing and Integration:

Manufacture the drive mechanism (such as the piston and cylinder) and its connecting components separately.

Integrate the drive mechanism into the mold, and ensure proper operation through precise installation and calibration.

Sealing and Connections:

Use high-precision sealing materials and technologies to ensure a secure connection between the infusion bottle and external systems.

Equipped with a variety of interfaces (such as threads) or flange interfaces) to suit different application requirements.

Testing and Debugging:

Perform mold performance tests, including flow control, pressure regulation, and leak rate.

Adjust mold design parameters or drive mechanism performance based on test results to optimize the infusion process.

Dosing:

Open the infusion system and adjust the drive mechanism to achieve the desired flow and pressure.

Add the drug slowly and precisely to the target solution or patient, avoiding sudden additions.

Monitoring and Maintenance:

Use a real-time monitoring system to track parameters such as pressure and flow during the infusion process.

Regularly check mold seals and drive mechanism performance, and perform necessary maintenance and cleaning.

Shutdown and Storage:

After infusion is complete, shut down the infusion system and ensure the device is secure. Ensure the equipment is in a safe condition.

Clean dirt and other debris from the exterior of the equipment and preserve all relevant materials and technical documentation.

Applications of Infusion Set Molds

Infusion Set Mold Maintenance and Care

Regular Cleaning:

Clean the mold surface to remove dust, impurities, and other potential influencing factors.

Lubrication and Maintenance:

Properly lubricate the drive mechanism and sealing components to reduce friction and extend device life.

Seal Inspection and Repair:

Inspect the seal performance of the infusion bottle and, if necessary, replace any leaking seals or components.

Drive Mechanism Calibration:

Regularly calibrate the drive mechanism's adjustment parameters to ensure accurate infusion flow and pressure.

Environmental Control:

Ensure the device maintains stable environmental conditions (e.g., temperature) during storage and use. , humidity, etc.) to prevent performance changes caused by environmental factors.

Spare Parts Management:

Regularly inspect and replenish drive mechanisms, seals, and other spare parts to ensure proper equipment operation.
