Classified based on the number of cavities and the arrangement of the mold, which affects production efficiency and product consistency.
- Single-Cavity Optical Molds
Each mold has only one cavity, mainly used for high-precision optical components (e.g., professional camera lenses, laser lenses) where strict consistency is required. It ensures stable molding conditions and easy quality control.
- Multi-Cavity Optical Molds
Equipped with multiple identical cavities (e.g., 4-cavity, 8-cavity, 16-cavity) for mass production of medium-to-low precision optical parts (e.g., eyeglass lenses, LED optical covers). The key design point is to achieve balanced filling of each cavity to ensure uniform product quality.
- Family Molds for Optical Components
A single mold integrates multiple different cavities to produce a set of matching optical components (e.g., lens sets for a single optical module) at one time, which can reduce production costs and improve assembly efficiency.
