Injection Mould

An injection mould is a specialized tool used in the injection molding process to shape plastic into desired forms. It is custom-designed for specific products and is widely used in mass production of plastic parts for industries such as automotive, electronics, and consumer goods.

An injection mould is a crucial component in the plastic manufacturing process. It consists of two halves: the cavity side and the core side. The molten plastic is injected into the mould cavity under high pressure, and once the plastic cools and solidifies, the mould opens, and the finished part is ejected. Injection moulds are made from high-grade materials like steel or aluminum to withstand the high pressures and repeated use associated with mass production.

Injection moulds are highly precise, allowing for the creation of intricate designs and complex shapes with exact dimensions. They can produce identical parts in large quantities, making them ideal for industries such as automotive, medical devices, electronics, and consumer goods, where uniformity and precision are critical. The cost of producing an injection mould can be high due to its custom design and engineering, but this investment is offset by the efficiency and scalability of the injection molding process, which allows for the rapid production of thousands or even millions of parts.
