Injection Molding

Shapes: Simple and Complex solid bulk shapes

Design Notes:
Best way to mass-produce small, precise, polymer components with complex shapes.
The surface finish is good
texture and pattern can be easily altered in the tool
fine detail reproduces well.

The Economics:
Capital cost are medium to high

The Environment:
Thermoplastic spurs can be recycled.
