Injection Moulding

High Quality With Great Accuracy, Great Speed

The Process

The plastic injection moulding process produces large numbers of parts of high quality with great accuracy, very quickly. Plastic material in the form of granules is melted until soft enough to be injected under pressure to fill a mould.

The Result

The result is that the shape is exactly copied, making it great for mass production and part manufacturing. This is a very rapid and reliable process so repeat products can be created to the same finish and quality every time. 

Benefits

  • Accuracy. 
  • Speed.
  • Repeatability.
  • Clean and environmentally friendly.
  • Most cost effective for part complexity.
  • Most cost effective for volume manufacturing.
