What Are the Best Thermoplastics for Injection Molding?
Thermoplastics are a class of synthetic materials that melt when heated and solidify when cooled. They are a great choice for injection molding because they have high strength, rigidity and recyclability.
What Are the Most Popular Types of Plastic Injection Molding Machines?
Injection molding machines can be hydraulically or electrically powered. Electric models use a power-driven reciprocating screw and heating sections to heat and convert solid pellets of plastic into molten liquids. Hydraulic models use a pump to force plastic through the barrel.
