INJECTION MOLD P5 3 6 Ping Line
If one were inside a closed mold and looking outside, the mating junction of the mold cavities would appear as a line. It also appears as a line on the molded piece and is called the parting line. A piece may have several parting lines. The selection of the parting line in mold design is influenced by the type of mold, number of cavities, shape of the piece, tapers, method of ejection, method of fabrication, venting, wall thickness, location and type of gating, inserts, postmolding operations, and aesthetic consideration.
