Molding Learning Center

Perhaps the most prevalent manufacturing category for consumer products. Our world has been shaped by processes like Injection Molding and for good reason. Often one of the cheapest manufacturing technique at scale. Most processes included requiring larger initial investment to manufacture molds though there are some notable exceptions. Click the links below to find out more about each process.

Dip Molding

Often a high volume technique used for manufacturing parts with mostly uniform thin wall thicknesses and flexible plastics. Think of products like balloons, latex gloves, and condoms.

Blow Molding

Capable of working with materials that become elastic under heat such as plastics or glass. Recognized from common products like water bottles and beer bottles.

Injection Molding

What could be considered the dominant manufacturing process of the world today, injection molding is has the ability to produce incredibly intricate designs with great material properties for extremely low prices.

Rotomolding

Often used to make large agricultural water tanks and other large hollow products too big for blow molding. Most commonly recognized in hollow chocolate rabbits.

Urethane Molding

A low quantity technique to make parts of production quality but a much lower capital investment costs. Great strategy for prototyping to begin production faster and less investment, though the unit costs are higher.
