what is plastic mold

When we talk about plastic injection molding, the star of the show is the plastic mold. This essential tool is crafted from a mix of steel plates and other components, all pieced together to create a solid, reliable mold. Once it’s ready, we install it in an injection molding machine, where it works its magic by shaping thermoplastic resin into the desired form.

Almost all plastic products you see are made using these molds. Depending on the type of plastic, we classify molds into two main categories: thermosetting and thermoplastic. Each has its unique properties and uses, making them exciting tools in our manufacturing process.
