There are 6 place sub gate in this mold. There are many small ribs under the back in the part, 

its builded some lifters for undercut. 

below picture clearly shows the weld area, increase the melt temperature to improve the fluidity;

 increase the injection speed so that the melt reaches the confluence without cooling; 

increase the mold temperature to reduce the melt temperature; expand the gate or 

thicken the wall thickness of the part on the path to the confluence. Reduce flow resistance; 

switch to plastic with good fluidity to help reduce welding marks; welding marks will 

definitely occur when molding with multiple gates, and welding marks may not occur

 when molding with a single gate.

When designing a switch cover mold, several important factors should be considered to ensure a successful and efficient manufacturing process. Here are some key points to note:

Switch Cover Specifications: Understand the specific requirements and dimensions of the switch cover, such as its shape, size, thickness, and surface finish. This information will be critical for designing the mold accurately.

Mold Material Selection: Choose the appropriate mold material based on factors like the expected production volume, type of switch cover material, and expected tool life. Common mold materials include S136 steel and H13 steel.

Parting Line and Mold Cavity: Determine the optimal parting line, which is the separation line between the two halves of the mold. This decision affects the mold's complexity and the production process. Design the mold cavity to accurately reproduce the switch cover's geometry, considering draft angles, undercuts, and other features.

Gate Placement: Identify suitable gate locations through which the molten material will be injected into the mold. The gate location should allow for proper filling, minimize cosmetic defects, and facilitate easy removal of the final part from the mold.

Ejection System: Incorporate an effective ejection system to release the switch cover from the mold after it solidifies. This system typically includes ejector pins or sleeves, ensuring smooth and reliable part ejection without causing damage.

Cooling System: Design an efficient cooling system to regulate the temperature of the mold during production. Proper cooling helps in achieving shorter cycle times, consistent part quality, and prolonged mold life. Consider the placement and design of cooling channels to ensure uniform cooling.

Venting: Provide appropriate venting within the mold to allow air and gases to escape during injection. Insufficient venting can lead to defects like air traps, burns, or incomplete filling.

Mold Maintenance and Repair: Anticipate the need for mold maintenance and repair, and incorporate features that facilitate easy access to critical areas. This consideration includes proper design of mold components like slides, lifters, and inserts for repair or replacement if necessary.

Mold Cost and Complexity: Balance the mold's complexity and cost based on the expected production volume and budget. Complex molds may be more expensive but can offer better part quality, while simpler molds can be more cost-effective for low-volume production.

Collaboration with Mold Manufacturer: Involve the mold manufacturer early in the design process to benefit from their expertise and ensure that the design is manufacturable and aligns with their capabilities.

Remember that the specific requirements and best practices for switch cover mold design may vary depending on the material, manufacturing process (such as injection molding), and the unique needs of the switch cover itself.
