Many products that we use in our everyday lives are made by the process of plastic injection moulding. This process is used when large quantities of plastics items are made, as a single mould will produce the same item many times over. It is the most important part of the plastic manufacturing process. A large range of different products are produced using this process.
The process itself used to be undertaken manually by people in the factory but today the process is fully automated and controlled by a central processing unit. The process involves powdered thermoplastic plastic being fed into the machine and the plastic is then melted down. The plastic is injected into the mould cavity, which is warmed to prevent the plastic from hardening before the mould is full, and then pressure is exerted to keep the plastic in the mould while it hardens. The end result is that the plastic takes on the shape of the mould cavity, which is the finished product, whatever that may be.

Food Industry
Our food industry of today would struggle without this process as many containers and other plastic items that are used are made by this process. Bottles, ice cream containers and margarine containers are all made using this process, as are many other containers that hold food. Smaller items like bottle tops are also made using this process, as well as things like milk crates. Plastic bottles and containers have replaced glass with many food items. Plastic is cheap to produce and light to transport.
Around the home
Many of the plastic items you use around your home are made using the process of injection moulding. The plastic plug in your sink and bathtub is made using this process, as is your plastic rubbish bin, laundry basket, disposable razors, bottles, storage containers, as well as children's toys. There are many handy items around your house that are made using injection moulding, items that now only exist because of this process.
Technology
Technology also benefits from this process. Things like computers, printers, photocopies and cameras have plastic parts in them that are produced by injection moulding. Plastic items vary from the very large to the very small, including things like parts of industrial copiers and the keys on your computer keyboard.
Recreation and Travel
We use many different things made from plastic in our everyday lives, including things used for sports, recreation and entertainment. Today's water sports are made possible because of injection moulding as sometimes hulls of boats and parts of other water craft are made using this process. Plastic sports equipment is made this way, which is often used in junior competitions, as well as training aids like plastic cones. Even when we travel we come across things made by this process. The meals on an air plane come served on a plastic tray, there are plastic parts in the interiors of trains and even the body shells of kit cars are made from plastic which has been moulded using injection moulding.
