Flip-Top Cap Injection Mold for Beverages: 1*16 Cavities, Fast Cycle, Hot Runner
Product Spotlights
Welcome to Changzhou Hongxinyutai Precision Mold Co., Ltd. – your trusted partner in high-performance injection molds. Since 2017, we have specialized in producing precision molds for the beverage industry, and our Flip-Top Cap Injection Mold with 1*16 cavities and hot runner system is a testament to our engineering excellence. Designed for fast cycle production, this mold enables beverage cap manufacturers to achieve maximum output with minimal waste. With our TS16969-certified quality management system, every mold we deliver ensures consistent precision and durability.
Our 1*16 cavity flip-top cap mold integrates advanced hot runner technology to maintain exact temperature control, reduce material waste, and accelerate cycle times. The mold is crafted from high-grade steel (P20, H13, or 718 upon request), offering long service life and stable performance under high-volume production runs. Whether you produce caps for water bottles, carbonated drinks, or juice containers, this mold delivers reliable results with a smooth flip-top hinge action.
Key Features & Technical Specifications
- 1*16 Cavity Layout: Optimized for high-efficiency production of standard flip-top caps (e.g., 28mm or 38mm neck finishes).
- Hot Runner System: Precision temperature control eliminates cold slug, reduces scrap, and shortens cycle time to as low as 5–8 seconds per cycle.
- Fast Cycle Design: Balanced flow channels and efficient cooling channels ensure uniform filling and rapid cooling, boosting hourly output.
- Durable Mold Steel: Choose from P20 (pre-hardened), H13 (hot work), or 718 (corrosion-resistant) – all heat-treated for hardness up to 48-52 HRC.
- Precision Machining: CNC milling, EDM, and wire cutting guarantee cavity tolerances within ±0.01 mm – essential for reliable flip-top hinge function.
- TS16969 Quality System: Every mold undergoes strict dimensional, functional, and pressure testing before shipment.
- Customizable Options: Mold base size, gate type (valve gate or pin gate), cooling layout, and ejection system can be tailored to your injection molding machine.

Benefits for Your Production
- Higher Output: With 16 cavities and fast cycle, you can produce up to 180,000 caps per day (based on 8-second cycle, 24h operation).
- Reduced Material Waste: Hot runner design eliminates sprue and runner scrap, saving up to 20% on raw material costs.
- Consistent Quality: Balanced flow ensures each cavity fills uniformly, resulting in identical cap weight and hinge performance.
- Easy Maintenance: Modular design and standardized components (DME, HASCO, etc.) simplify servicing and spare part replacement.
- Energy Efficient: Optimized cooling channels reduce overall cycle time, lowering energy consumption per part.
