What is plastics molding
Plastics molding is the set of all those technologies and transformation processes that allow the production of components made of polymeric material through the use of a mold. The plastics molding process involves several types of molding, which you can choose according to your needs.
The advantages
Plastics molding has so many benefits for your company's production. The benefits vary depending on the type of molding you choose. Plastics, in general, have lower costs than other materials and are lightweight, versatile, durable, have low energy consumption and are recyclable.
Saving
The lower cost saves you money compared to other solutions.
Lightness
Get lighter and more versatile objects that you can maneuver more easily.
Low consumption
Plastics production consumes only a small amount of raw materials.
Large quantities
By molding plastics you produce large quantities in less time.
Flexibility
Plastics molding ensures flexible design and production.
Recyclable
Plastic can become a resource again even after it has been used.
Types of plastics molding
The types of molding over the years have differed according to the material to be processed, the shapes you wish to obtain, and the physical characteristics the product must have.
Injection molding
We do single-material molding: we make components with a type of injection involving only one type of polymer or thermoplastic material.
Two-component moulding
We make components with high aesthetic characteristics and high tightness and performance due to the possibility of molding two different thermoplastic materials in the same mold.
Gas assisted molding
This process, also referred to as GAIM (Gas Assisted Injection Moulding), involves the insertion of gas into a duct to make a “hollow” article inside.
Co-molding
This type of molding allows plastic materials to be fused with other different materials such as metal, brass, or aluminum. The result is a piece of plastic firmly coupled with an insert encapsulated in it.
