About Molding Machines
Molding machines form thermoplastic resin, thermoset polymers, or metal injection molding (MIM) compounds into finished shapes. Injection molding machines consist of a barrel and reciprocating screw assembly, an injection nozzle, and a hydraulic motor that feeds the molten plastic or metal mix into a mold. The molding machines then transport the molten material as it progresses through the feeding, compressing, degassing, melting, injection, and packing stages. Modern molding machines are controlled by computer systems that act upon information from sensors to control each action of the molding equipment, and to ensure consistent output and quality.
