There are many different categories of clothes hanger machines that belong to different processing industries. They can be categorised according to the materials they use and the degree of automation. They include machines for making plastic, metal (wire), and wooden hangers.
Plastic hangers are lightweight, inexpensive and colourful, suitable for drying underwear and other lightweight clothing, but weak load-bearing, easy to deform and less environmentally friendly; metal hangers in stainless steel corrosion-resistant, load-bearing, aluminium alloy is lightweight and rust-proof, suitable for hanging jackets and other heavier clothing, but the price is higher and some styles may wear clothing.
Wooden hangers natural environmental protection, good texture, can protect clothing from deformation, especially for high-grade clothing, but the weight of large, moisture maintenance and higher cost; flocking hangers non-slip strong, space-saving, suitable for silk and other slippery fabrics, but fluffy easy to fall off, inconvenient to clean; acrylic hangers transparent, beautiful, suitable for displaying clothes, but poor impact resistance, easy to fracture and long-term exposure to the sun may turn yellow.
Selection can be based on demand, daily lightweight plastic, load-bearing and durable selection of metal, high-grade clothing selection of wood or flocking, decorative display selection of acrylic.You start the whole business plan by identifying the target hanger types, materials, referencing scenarios, and yield targets before choosing the right hanger production machine.
There are six types clothes hanger machines:
- Metal hanger manufacturing machines
- Plastic hanger manufacturing injection molding machines
- Welding type hanger molding machines
- Fully automatic rotary hanger hook insertion machines
- Semi-automatic trouser hanger assembly machine
- Automatic Plastic Hanger Anti-slip Rubber Installation and Hook Insertion Machine
Plastic hanger injection molding machine is the most cost-effective clothes hanger machine.
There are different hanger manufacturing machines for different hanger product production needs and scenarios.
Types of Plastic hanger manufacturing injection molding machines
The injection molding machine is the most sophisticated type of plastic molding hanger manufacturing machine.
It can produce different plastic molding hanger products by replacing moulds.
There are seven main types of plastic molding hanger injection molding machines:
- Servo injection molding machine
- Horizontal injection molding machine
- Vertical injection molding machine
- Multi-cavity mould injection molding machine
- Energy-saving injection molding machine
- Automatic injection molding machine
- Precision injection molding machine
Servo injection molding machine:
Servo injection molding machine is the preferred model for producing plastic molding hangers due to its stable molding, fast response and quiet operation.
In addition, servo motors can save 20%-80% of energy and are suitable for mass production.
Horizontal injection molding machine:
Horizontal injection molding clothes hanger machines are simple in structure, easy to operate, and suitable for the production of small plastic products, such as plastic molding hangers.
Vertical injection molding machine:
Vertical injection molding machine has compact structure, small footprint, suitable for the production of height-restricted products.
Such as some special design of plastic hangers.
Multi-cavity mould injection machine:
Plastic hanger moulds can be designed as multi-cavity moulds to improve production efficiency.
For example, a two-cavity or multi-cavity mould can produce several hangers at the same time, thus increasing production capacity.
Energy efficient injection molding machines:
Energy efficient injection molding machines reduce production costs through optimal design and efficient energy use.
They are suitable for cost-sensitive plastic hanger production.
Fully automatic injection molding machines:
Fully-automatic injection molding machines are integrated with automation equipment and can automate the whole process from raw material loading to finished product discharging.
Improve production efficiency and reduce labour costs.
Precision injection molding machine:
Precision injection molding clothes hanger machines are suitable for products that require high precision and high quality surfaces.
For example, plastic molding hangers with complex structures (such as hooks, non-slip strips, etc.).
Selecte injection molding machine types according to specific production needs, output requirements and cost budgets.
Ensuring efficient, high-quality production of plastic clothes hangers.
Plastic clothes hanger manufacturing injection molding machine production principle
The manufacture of plastic molding hangers is an injection molding process, which is by far the most sophisticated production method.
The production principle is as follows:
- Plastic hanger raw material preparation
- Heating and melting
- Injection molding
- Cooling and curing
- Demolding and inspection
- Scrap Recycling:
Plastic hanger raw material preparation:
Firstly, mix the plastic granules (e.g. PP, PS, etc.) and masterbatch proportionally.
Then the water is removed by drying equipment to ensure the dryness and uniformity of the plastic granules.
Heating and melting:
After mixing, the plastic granules are fed into the hopper of the injection molding machine, where they are heated to a molten state in the barrel by the rotating and propelling action of the screw or plunger.
Usually, the melting temperature of ABS material is about 190-230℃, while the melting temperature of PP material is about 200-250℃.
Injection molding:
The molten plastic is injected into the pre-set mould cavity at high speed through a nozzle.
The plastic hanger mould is kept closed under high pressure to ensure that the plastic can completely fill the mould cavity.
Cooling and curing:
The plastic hanger is rapidly cooled and cured in the mould. The cooling speed directly affects the dimensional accuracy and surface quality of the product.
Demolding and inspection:
After cooling is complete, the mould will open and the plastic hanger will fall out from the mould.
Subsequently, the finished products are inspected for appearance and quality by manual or automated equipment, and the qualified products are packed and put into storage.
Scrap Recycling:
Plastic corners and defective products generated during the injection molding process are collected and crushed into large particles, which are reused in production to improve raw material utilisation.
The advantages of the injection molding process include:
High efficiency: injection molding machines allow for a continuous, high-speed production process that is suitable for mass production.
High precision: Mould technology ensures that plastic molding hangers are dimensionally accurate and have smooth edges, eliminating the need for further processing.
Complex structure realisation: injection moulds can realise a variety of complex structural designs for molding hangers, such as hooks and anti-slip strips.
The manufacture of plastic molding hangers through the injection molding process achieves high efficiency and precision production, which is suitable for mass production needs.
