This is particularly important for sweaters that may undergo frequent movement and stretching. Some consumers may associate sewn-on metal tags with higher quality and craftsmanship, contributing to a positive perception of the product.

The molten metal rapidly cools and solidifies within the mold. This is a critical step to ensure that the metal tag retains its intended shape and features. After solidification, the mold is opened, and the newly formed metal tags are ejected. This may involve the use of ejector pins or other mechanisms to release the tags from the mold. The die-cast metal tags may undergo trimming to remove any excess material or imperfections. Additionally, finishing processes such as polishing, buffing, or coating may be applied to achieve the desired surface texture or appearance. Then send finished metal tags to plating plants to plating colors, etc.
