Ferriot Inc. | Full-Service Engineering and Contract Manufacturing for OEMs
Injection Processes
Every project is different. Each has its own requirements. As an injection mold manufacturer, Ferriot has numerous injection processes that enable us to deliver what you need when you need it.
Injection molding is a common manufacturing process used to create a wide variety of products, ranging from simple household items to complex medical devices. The injection mold process involves injecting molten plastic or other materials into a mold cavity, where it cools and solidifies to form the desired shape. Here are the steps involved in bringing your design to life using an injection process:
Injection Mold Process Steps
The injection molding process is so highly versatile that it can be used to create a wide range of products in various sizes and shapes. With careful design and preparation, it is possible to bring your product design to life using an injection molding process.
Replace metal or traditional plastic components with lighter and stronger engineered plastics that are more cost effective!
View CapabilitiesGas Assist Improves/increases strength of thin parts. Most recommended for hollow pieces
View CapabilitiesEncasing components into injection molded parts with high precision and consistency
View CapabilitiesAdds softer touch to molded parts while also improving grip on hand controls and providing water resistance and sound absorption
View CapabilitiesFerriot offers over 150 resin selections for simple to complex geometries for small to large parts
View CapabilitiesGas assist injection molding (GAIM) is an enhanced injection molding process often applied for complex parts, large parts and parts requiring an attractive, cosmetic finish.Read More
Insert molding is the process of placing of an object (insert) into an injection mold and then encasing some portion of it in plastic.Read More
Injection molding begins with melted thermoplastic being injected into a mold, and a packing stage where pressure is built and the plastic is formed into the shape of the mold. In structural foam molding, the injection stage is basically the same, but the packing stage is augmented by a chemical blowing agent mixed with the material.Read More
Structural foam molding is an option available to manufacturers who are looking for a way to create stronger, more rigid plastic parts. It is also a method used to reduce potential part weight for larger parts.Read More
Structural foam parts have much higher strength-to-weight and strength-to-stiffness ratios than injection molded parts. They are also much more impact resistant due to the microcellular structure.Read More
Over molding is process that adds a softer touch to molded parts while also improving grip on hand controls and providing water resistance and sound absorption.Read More
