Injection molding has a number of advantages. It minimises molding costs and is a highly repeatable way of producing plastic or elastomeric parts with high precision. Once set up, it can manufacture a large volume of parts per hour, from a wide range of different plastics plus other materials such as liquid silicone rubber.
However, like any manufacturing process, it does have some disadvantages, and if these prove significant to the success of your project, then you may be better off exploring alternative manufacturing technologies such as 3D printing or CNC machining.
In this blog, we will take you through the main advantages of injection molding and explore when it may be better for you to consider an alternative production method.
