Injection Moulding ProcessMaterial granules are melted down and

injected into the mold.

Injection Moulding ProcessThe mold is held under pressure until the

material cools and hardens.

Injection Moulding ProcessOnce the material hardens, the mold is opened and the part is removed.

Injection Moulding ProcessAnd the process can be repeated.

What Is Injection Molding Used for?Items made from injection moldingInjection molding is used for manufacturing

plastic, rubber and metal. Materials are fed through a heated barrel in the machine and forced into a mold where it will cool and take its shape. An injection molding machine can stamp out metal car shell parts, rubber valve steam seals, and even plastic toys for kids.

What Is Injection Molding Used for?Plastic

Injection molds uses plastic to make toys for children, milk containers and movie cases. It also makes other plastic products such as combs, kitchen utensils and dust pans.

What Is Injection Molding Used for?Rubber

Injection molds make many rubber automobile parts. It makes valve steam seals and oil seals for the engine. It also makes earplugs, rubber hoses and telecommunications items.

What Is Injection Molding Used for?Metal

Injection molds can stamp out small to large items. It can stamp out automobile parts from spark plugs and floor pans to ball bearings. It also can stamp out items like TV hangers and knitting needles.
