Injection molding is the primary process for manufacturing
plastic parts. Plastic is known to be a very versaltile and
economical material that is used in many applications. Although
the tooling is expensive, the cost per part is very low.
Injection molding involves taking plastic of your choice in the
form of pellets or granules and heating this material until a
melt is obtained. Then the melt is forced into a split-die
chamber/mold where it is allowed to "cool" into the desired
shape. The mold is then opened and the part is ejected, at which
time the cycle is repeated again.
