Injection molding is a technique to transfer polymer materials into useful products of various shapes. It is a cost-effective method, and can produce complex shape parts not only with a high precision but also at a high production rate

It minimises molding costs and is a highly repeatable way of producing plastic or elastomeric parts with high precision. Once set up, it can manufacture a large volume of parts per hour, from a wide range of different plastics plus other materials such as liquid silicone rubber.

Manufacturers often use injection molding to create plastic housings, household appliances, consumer electronics, power tools and automotive interiors. This technique is also used to produce open containers like buckets, household products like toothbrushes, plastic toys, and medical devices like syringes and valves.
