Final Project

Injection molding machine

On this page, you will find my project development. The project is a injection machine kit.

Injection molding is a manufacturing process used to produce components by injecting liquid material into a mold. Injection molding is generally used for plastic injection molded part manufacturing but also finds use in metals, glass, clay, etc. For large scale production, it is one the most cost efective method used.
