Shenzhen Alu Rapid Prototype Precision Co., Ltd.

Injection molding is a manufacturing process where molten plastic (or other materials) is injected into a mold cavity to create precise, high-volume parts like bottle caps, toys, or automotive components. It's efficient for mass production but requires knowledge of design, materials, machinery, and troubleshooting to avoid defects like warping or sink marks.
