Plastic Injection Moulding – What is it?

Plastic injection moulding is the process of creating a mould that can be used to create small and large scale batches of products both fast and efficiently, without the risk of inconsistency. For plastic injection moulding West Midlands, our service entails designing and creating the plastic mould using our state-of-the-art machinery and the skill of our experienced manufacturing experts. After the mould is made, we melt the desired plastic down so it is smooth enough to be poured into the mould and pressed at high pressure using shot-weights. The plastic then cools and hardens, moulding into the required shape.

Who uses it?

Plastic injection moulding is an extremely reliable manufacturing process, which is why it appeals to so many different industries. Here at HLB Plastics, an extensive range of work sectors including the aerospace, automotive, healthcare, toy manufacturing and defence industries uses our plastic injection moulding services. However, we are also fully capable of providing plastic injection moulding services for much smaller scaled requirements, with some of our customers simply needing the service for home-based projects. But whether it’s for industrial or commercial uses, you can rest assured the service will be completed fast, but thoroughly, creating a mould that ticks all your boxes.

What is plastic injection moulding?

Plastic injection moulding is a process used to create large (and sometimes small) batches of products that are guaranteed to be of the same size, shape and weight. The process is relatively quick, and for manufacturing industries that require consistency throughout all their products, plastic injection companies can be an ideal solution to turn to.  The technique involves melting plastic and then pouring it into a mould. Shot weights are then used to apply pressure onto the plastic, shaping it into its mould. Here at HLB Plastics, we create the injection mould in-house using our plastic injection machines, tailoring it specifically to our client’s requirements to ensure they receive a product that ticks all their boxes.

How Plastic Injection Moulds Work

With all plastic injection moulds, fine plastic granules are fed via a hopper into a heated chamber. In this barrel the plastic is melted under great heat, after which it is then poured through a nozzle into a mould cavity. A wide variety of plastic injection mouldings can be used here and our job is to design and manufacturer the mould to go beneath the barrel, into which your chosen plastic will pour and be shaped. Using shot weights of up to 350-tonnes, great pressure is applied to the plastic, shaping it into hundreds of possible designs.

We offer one of the most popular plastic injection moulding services West Midlands, building hundreds of plastic injection mouldings both cheaply and quickly thanks to our expert team of engineers.
