Touch control panels are essential in modern electronic products. They allow users to control machines quickly and easily. At the same time, these panels face constant physical contact. Because of this, durability has become a key design requirement. Repeated touch, harsh chemicals, and frequent cleaning damage conventional panels. However, in-mold decoration (IMD) offers a long-lasting solution. As a result, manufacturers can create touch panels that retain both function and appearance for years. At Polar Printed Electronics, IMD plays a vital … Continue reading “Designing Long-Life Touch Control Panels Using In-Mold Decoration Technology”
How IMD Manufacturing Improves Dimensional Accuracy and Graphic Consistency
Posted on December 23, 2025December 23, 2025Categories In Mold Decoration Leave a comment on How IMD Manufacturing Improves Dimensional Accuracy and Graphic ConsistencyFilm positioning plays a critical role in IMD manufacturing. It directly controls graphic alignment, repeatability, and dimensional accuracy in printed electronic components. When manufacturers control film positioning from the start, they achieve stable geometry and consistent visuals at scale. At Linepro, IMD manufacturing focuses on precision rather than decoration alone. Every step—from film placement to overmolding—supports dimensional control and visual consistency. As products become thinner and more complex, this approach delivers reliable results. IMD Manufacturing and Its Role in Printed … Continue reading “How IMD Manufacturing Improves Dimensional Accuracy and Graphic Consistency”
Injection Molding Decoration: Engineering Advantages of In-Mold Decoration
Posted on December 22, 2025December 22, 2025Categories In Mold Decoration Leave a comment on Injection Molding Decoration: Engineering Advantages of In-Mold Decorationn modern manufacturing, both appearance and durability are crucial. Moreover, companies want products that look premium and last long. One of the best ways to achieve this is through injection molding decoration. This method integrates surface design directly into molded plastic parts. As a result, it provides many advantages over traditional post-molding decoration techniques. At Linepro, we use advanced in-mold decoration (IMD) technology to deliver parts that combine quality, longevity, and design flexibility. What is Injection Molding Decoration? Injection molding … Continue reading “Injection Molding Decoration: Engineering Advantages of In-Mold Decoration”
In-Mold Technology: Inside an IMD Component’s Film Structure, Materials, and Manufacturing Process
Posted on December 18, 2025December 18, 2025Categories In Mold Decoration Leave a comment on In-Mold Technology: Inside an IMD Component’s Film Structure, Materials, and Manufacturing ProcessIntroduction: Why In-mold technology defines modern product surfaces In-mold technology has changed how manufacturers create durable, high-quality, and visually consistent plastic components. Instead of applying graphics or coatings after molding, this advanced process integrates decoration directly into the molded part. As a result, manufacturers achieve superior surface durability, enhanced scratch resistance, and long-lasting aesthetics. Also known as in-mold decoration (IMD), this method uses a precisely engineered IMD film that becomes part of the final component during film insert molding. Therefore, … Continue reading “In-Mold Technology: Inside an IMD Component’s Film Structure, Materials, and Manufacturing Process”
