From Mold To Finished Product: Revealing The Whole Production Process Behind The Eyeshadow Grid

Have you ever wondered how a lightweight but powerful eyeshadow grid can be transformed from a piece of plastic raw material into an indispensable part of cosmetic packaging? Don't underestimate it, the production process behind it is a "beautiful project" of technology and precision manufacturing.

As the name suggests, the eyeshadow grid is a grid structure that fixes and separates the color of the eyeshadow. It not only affects the appearance of the eyeshadow, but also affects the user experience. Its production process is not as simple as "one mold press".

Step 1: Design and mold opening, the starting point that determines the fate of the finished product

Everything starts with design. Engineers design the size, number of grids and arrangement of the grid according to the specifications of the eyeshadow palette and brand requirements. The next step is mold opening - the precision of the mold directly determines the quality of the grid. A high-quality mold can not only ensure the precise size and smooth edges of each piece, but also greatly improve production efficiency.

Step 2: Injection molding, giving life to raw materials

After mold debugging, it enters the injection molding stage. High-quality PP or ABS plastic particles are melted at high temperature, injected into the mold, and pressed into shape under high pressure. This step seems simple, but it actually requires extremely high control of temperature, pressure, and cooling time. Any deviation in details may cause warping, shrinkage, or burrs, affecting beauty and practicality.

Step 3: Demolding and trimming to create perfect details

The molded mesh is automatically demolded after cooling, and then enters the manual or mechanical trimming stage. Excess material heads or burrs will be accurately removed to ensure that each mesh feels smooth and has a solid structure.

Step 4: Testing and packaging, the key link in quality assurance

Qualified products must also undergo strict testing, and dimensional accuracy, compressive strength, smoothness, etc. are all within the testing range. Only meshes that meet all standards will enter the final packaging process and be ready to be sent to the production lines of major cosmetics brands around the world.

Conclusion: Small meshes contain great craftsmanship

From molds to finished products, every process of eyeshadow meshes is pursuing excellence. Next time you open a palette of exquisite eye shadow, you might as well take a closer look at the "unknown" grid piece. Its exquisiteness is the embodiment of the strength behind the cosmetics industry.
