What is injection molding?

It's a process where a mold is clamped into a molding machine then melted plastic is injected into the mold under high pressure, as soon as the plastic is cool enough to retain its shape, the machine opens the mold and ejects the part. The whole process takes approximately one minute. The wall thickness of the part controls the cycle time. The thinner the part the faster the job runs, the thicker the part the slower the job runs. Typically injection molded parts are roughly 1/8 inch thick but can be as thin as 15 thousandth of an inch or as thick as ½ inch or more.

At Hope Plastics, we can take your existing mold, put it in one of our 21 molding machines and run which ever material you want. If you don't already have a mold, we can help you refine and optimize your design then build you either a steel or aluminum mold in our in house mold shop using the latest computer controlled equipment.
