Technical details and manufacturing context for Mold Assembly
| Parameter | Typical range | Notes & selection driver |
|---|---|---|
| Mold Dimensions (L×W×H) | 600×600–1200×1200 mm | Matches tile size; larger molds require higher press tonnage. |
| Pressing Force | 2000–8000 kN | Determines tile density; insufficient force causes porosity. |
| Dimensional Tolerance | ±0.05 mm | Tighter tolerance ensures uniform tile thickness.ISO 2768-m |
| Surface Roughness | 0.4–0.8 μm Ra | Affects tile surface finish; lower is smoother.ISO 4287 |
| Hardness (Mold Steel) | 48–52 HRC | Wear resistance; too low leads to early wear.ASTM E18 |
| Operating Temperature | 20–80 °C | Above 80°C may cause thermal deformation. |
| Cycle Time | 10–30 s | Shorter cycle increases production rate. |
| Mold Weight | 500–2000 kg | Affects handling and press capacity. |
| Material Grade | 42CrMo–H13 | H13 offers better heat resistance for high-volume production.GB/T 3077, ASTM A681 |
Ranges are indicative industry figures for RFQ preparation, not a supplier commitment. Confirm every value and standard with the legal manufacturer before ordering.
This component is essential for the following industrial systems and equipment:
| pressure: | Up to 500 bar (7,250 psi) - high-pressure tile pressing requirement |
| other spec: | Slurry concentration: 30-50% solids by weight, Cycle time: 10-60 seconds per tile |
| temperature: | Ambient to 80°C (176°F) - typical ceramic slurry processing range |
Indicative industry ranges for design and RFQ preparation. Confirm the exact figures and applicable standard with the manufacturer before specifying.

CNFX does not score or rank suppliers. Buyers must verify all claims and documents with the legal manufacturer before ordering.
The mold assembly is typically made from tool steel, hardened steel, and may include tungsten carbide inserts for wear resistance. Material grades can range from 42CrMo to H13, as referenced in GB/T 3077 and ASTM A681. Specific material selection depends on the application and must be confirmed with the supplier.
The pressing force range is 2000–8000 kN. The required force depends on the tile size and desired density. Insufficient force can lead to porosity in the tile. The exact force must be set according to the mold design and verified with the manufacturer.
The recommended operating temperature is 20–80°C. Above 80°C, thermal deformation may occur, affecting dimensional accuracy. It is important to monitor temperature during operation and ensure cooling if necessary.
Regular inspection for wear, cleaning, and proper lubrication are essential. Check dimensional tolerances and surface finish periodically. Replace worn parts as needed. Always follow the manufacturer's maintenance guidelines.
