What is injection moulding?

Injection moulding is a manufacturing process used to produce parts by injecting molten material, usually plastic, into a mould. The material is heated until it becomes liquid, then injected into a specially designed mould where it cools and solidifies into the desired shape. This process is widely used for making a variety of plastic products, from automotive components to household goods, due to its efficiency and ability to produce complex shapes with high precision. Injection moulding is ideal for mass production because it allows for consistent quality and rapid manufacturing cycles.

What is the difference between Injection Moulding vs Plastic Fabricator?
