Injection Molding (IM)

Injection Molding (IM) is a manufacturing process used to produce large quantities of identical parts by injecting molten material into a mold. The process begins with melting the chosen material, such as plastic, metal, or rubber, which is then injected into a precisely shaped mold cavity under high pressure. Once the material fills the mold, it is allowed to cool and solidify. The mold is then opened, and the finished part is ejected. Injection molding is valued for its ability to produce high-quality, complex parts with excellent dimensional accuracy and surface finish. It is widely used in various industries, including automotive, consumer goods, and electronics, for manufacturing everything from small components to large, intricate parts. The process is particularly effective for high-volume production runs due to its efficiency and consistency.

Materials:

• Plastics (Various Types): Includes materials such as ABS, polycarbonate, and polypropylene, used for producing high-volume parts with excellent dimensional accuracy and surface finish.
• Metals (Various Types): Includes aluminum and steel, used for producing robust and precise metal parts.
