What is Plastic Injection Molding?
Custom plastic injection molding services is a manufacturing process where molten plastic is injected into a mold cavity to form a specific shape, which is then cooled and solidified into a final part. It is commonly employed for large-scale production of plastic components due to its minimal material waste and low cost per unit. This makes it an optimal manufacturing method for sectors such as medical devices, consumer goods, and automotive.
Furthermore, proper mold design and careful control of molding conditions are crucial for producing high-quality parts. Explore our mold & tooling service and quality management.

Mold Creation
Injection
Cooling
Ejection
Once the plastic has solidified, the plastic mold injection is opened, and the newly formed part is ejected. This completes the injection molding process cycle.
