Injection molding is a method of producing shapes for industrial products. Products usually use rubber injection molding and plastic injection molding. Injection molding can also be divided into injection molding and die casting. Injection molding machine (referred to as injection machine or injection molding machine) is the main molding equipment for making thermoplastics or thermosets into various shapes of plastic products using plastic molding molds. Injection molding is achieved by injection molding machines and molds.
1. Rubber injection molding: Rubber injection molding is a production method in which the rubber material is directly injected into the model from the barrel for vulcanization. The advantages of rubber injection molding are: although it is an intermittent operation, the molding cycle is short, the production efficiency is high, the blank preparation process is cancelled, the labor intensity is small, and the product quality is excellent.
2. Plastic injection molding: Plastic injection molding is a method of plastic products. The molten plastic is injected into the mold of plastic products by pressure, and the desired plastic parts are obtained by cooling and molding. There are mechanical injection molding machines dedicated to performing injection molding. The most commonly used plastic today is polystyrene.
