Injection molding is critical to the modern world. TX Mold has written several times about injection molding and the basic processes. Therefore, in this blog post, we will turn to

In short, mold making is the most expensive part of plastic injection molding. Therefore, for particularly complex parts, it is sometimes worthwhile to build a prototype for the tool, which

In our blog on the injection molding process, we have dealt with PET in some way. after all, polyethylene terephthalate is a thermoplastic. If you want a closer look at

In injection molding, the clamping force is the force that presses the two halves of the mold together. Since the maximum clamping force determines the size of the mold and

Today’s blog post is about the properties, history, and applications of PMMA as plastic in injection molding. Most people know PMMA better by its proprietary name, Plexiglas®. However, it is

After we discussed thermoset injection molding in the last blog, this blog deals with elastomers. An elastomer is a plastic that can be made elastic by vulcanization. And it was

In short: In injection molding, three-dimensional bodies are produced with the help of a two-part die that gives shape to the injected liquid plastic before it cools. During extrusion, the

The full name of the well-known PVC is polyvinyl chloride (PVC). It was actually the first plastic ever discovered, however, the importance of this discovery was not yet maturely recognized

In our little series on materials used in injection molding, we finally come to the best-known and most frequently used plastics. A thermoplastic or elastomer is a plastic that first

We are covering the injection molding process and the corresponding plastics more frequently in our blog because we want to give our readers, friends and, of course, customers a closer
