The plastic injection moulding process

The plastic injection moulding process is a fast and precise way of producing hundreds or thousands of uniform plastic products.

The basic process is self-explanatory; softened plastic is injected into a mould where it quickly hardens and ejects before the process repeats. When you drill down more closely into the process, however, it can be a lot more complicated than that, especially where the latest technology is concerned.

Injection moulding is used to make lots of everyday plastic products. Packaging, toys, tool housings, telephones, bottle caps, plastic chairs, washing-up bowls, wheelie bins, DVD cases and lots of other items that you use every day are manufactured in an injection moulding machine.
