Throughout this
introduction we will discuss the definition of one of the machining
techniques that was used in the fabrication process of plastic which are explained in the
Industrial Chemistry course CHEM420 and
realized on real world by a visit paid for Panda Plast Company, a plastic products
manufacturing company in Bekaa:
Injection Modeling:Shape-forming process in which molten metal or
plastic is injected into aluminum, ceramic, or steel molds (shaped like the end
product) and squeezed under high pressure (Dictionary, injection molding, 2016) . The process is
illustrated in Fig.1.
Injection molding is employed mainly in the production of
solid objects. It has many advantages and injection molding some of them. First, High Efficiency so once
the injection molds have been designed, the actual molding process is very
quick compared to other methods of molding. Plastic injection molding process
hardly takes times and this allows more parts to be manufactured from a single mold.
The high production of molding consists more cost effective and efficient.
Second, Ability to Use Multiple Plastic Types Simultaneously is the
ability to use different types of plastic simultaneously. This can be done with
the help of co-injection molding, in which it used a specific type of plastic.
