Clothes Hanger Mould

Q: What is the maximum number of cavities possible?

We offer 4, 6, and 8-cavity configurations. 8-cavity is maximum for standard adult hangers (420mm width) on 500T machines. For smaller hangers (children's, accessory), 12-cavity is possible.

Q: Can swivel hooks be integrated?

Yes, we design for swivel hook integration. The hook mechanism is a separate insert that can be manually or automatically assembled. Swivel hooks add approximately 1 second to cycle time.

Q: What anti-slip options are available?

We offer: rubber-like TPE coating (post-moulding), textured shoulders (molded-in), and flocked shoulders (post-process). Molded-in texture is most cost-effective for high volumes.

Q: How do you ensure cavity-to-cavity consistency?

Our naturally balanced runner system ensures <2% weight variation between cavities. We verify balance during mould trial with individual cavity weighing and adjust as needed.

Q: What is the expected mould life?

With proper maintenance, our hanger moulds achieve 800,000+ shots. Key wear items (gates, ejector pins) can be replaced to extend life further. We include spare wear items with each mould.

Q: Can trouser bars be added?

Yes, trouser bars can be integrated into the base hanger design or as clip-on accessories. Integrated bars add approximately $2,000-3,000 to mould cost and 3 seconds to cycle time.

Maximizing Productivity in Hanger Production

Clothes hangers are high-volume, price-sensitive products. Success requires maximum productivity and minimum material usage. Our multi-cavity moulds deliver both.

Fast Fashion Retailer Partnership

A major European fast-fashion chain needed hangers that:

Matched their brand aesthetic precisely
Could be produced at 10 million units per year
Reduced plastic usage without sacrificing quality

Our 8-cavity mould with optimized design exceeded all targets.

Results:

12-second cycle time achieved (5 million hangers per mould per year)
15% material reduction through wall optimization
Consistent quality across all 8 cavities

The Economics of Hanger Production

Factor	Single Cavity	4-Cavity	8-Cavity
Mould cost	$X	$2.2X	$3.5X
Output/hour	300	900	1600
Cost/hanger	High	Medium	Lowest
ROI timeline	18 months	8 months	5 months

For volumes over 1 million/year, 8-cavity moulds are the clear choice.

Market Segmentation

Different markets require different hanger designs:

Retail display: Chrome hook, anti-slip shoulders
Dry cleaning: Swivel hook, trouser bar
Home use: Simple design, lowest cost
Premium apparel: Wood-grain texture, wide shoulders

Multi-Cavity Mould Engineering

Cavity Layout Optimization

8-cavity hanger moulds require careful layout:

Layout Options

Layout	Runner Length	Balance	Mould Size
2x4	Medium	Good	Compact
4+4	Long	Excellent	Wide
Radial	Equal	Perfect	Large

We use 2x4 layout for optimal balance of efficiency and mould size.

Runner System Design

Multi-cavity moulds need perfectly balanced filling:

Runner Specifications

Main runner: 8mm diameter
Sub-runner: 6mm diameter (naturally balanced)
Gate: Pin gate 1.2mm (clean vestige)
Balance deviation: <2% between cavities

Hook Design Options

The hook is the most complex feature:

Hook Type	Complexity	Applications
Fixed hook	Simple	Home use
Swivel hook	Medium	Retail, closets
Chrome insert	Complex	Premium retail

Chrome insert hooks require in-mould insertion capability.

Anti-Slip Shoulder Design

Effective anti-slip features prevent garment sliding:

Texture depth: 0.3-0.5mm
Texture pattern: Raised dots or ridges
Coverage area: Top 40% of shoulder slope
Draft angle: 5° minimum for texture release

Cycle Time Optimization

Hangers require ultra-fast cycles for profitability:

Cycle Breakdown (12s total)

Phase	Time	Optimization
Fill	1.2s	High-speed injection
Pack	1.5s	Minimal pack needed
Cool	7.0s	Conformal cooling
Eject	1.3s	Stripper plate
Mould	1.0s	High-speed clamp

Material Efficiency

Every gram matters in hanger production:

Target weight: 38-42g (adult hanger)
Wall thickness: 2.5mm shoulders, 2.0mm neck
Hook thickness: 4mm for rigidity
