Injection Molding is one of the principal processes used in converting

plastics into useful products. An injection molding machine can be large or small

but work through the same general process. The machine heats a thermoplastic

material that in its pre-processing state is pelletized or granular, to a liquid-like

"flowable" state. It then injects the melted plastic into a mold that is used to create

the desired shape of the product. The plastic in the mold is then allowed to cool

and removed form the mold by an ejector system.

Different raw plastics materials can be used in the injection molding

process. Most commonly injection molding machines provide process
