2. Injection moulding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Injection_moulding

   Filter for noozle with a plastic toy next to it. Injection moulding is used to create many things such as wire spools, packaging, bottle caps, automotive parts and components, toys, pocket combs, some musical instruments (and parts of them), one-piece chairs and small tables, storage containers, mechanical parts (including gears), and most other plastic products available today.

3. Spin casting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin_casting

   If the metal is introduced to the mold at a higher temperature (in this case, above 427 °C or 801 °F), it will wear the silicone prematurely, shortening the mold life. If the metal is introduced at significantly lower temperatures (below 413 °C or 775 °F), its solidification time will similarly be shortened resulting in incomplete or low ...

4. Thermoforming - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoforming

   Thermoforming is a manufacturing process where a plastic sheet is heated to a pliable forming temperature, formed to a specific shape in a mold, and trimmed to create a usable product. The sheet, or "film" when referring to thinner gauges and certain material types, is heated in an oven to a high-enough temperature that permits it to be ...

5. Plastic extrusion - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plastic_extrusion

   This process is the same as a regular extrusion process up until the die. There are three main types of dies used in this process: annular (or crosshead), spider, and spiral. Annular dies are the simplest, and rely on the polymer melt channeling around the entire cross section of the die before exiting the die; this can result in uneven flow.

6. Ceramic mold casting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceramic_mold_casting

   It is a combination of plaster mold casting and investment casting. [2] [3] There are two types of ceramic mold casting: the Shaw process and the Unicast process. [4] These casting processes are commonly used to make tooling, especially drop forging dies, but also injection molding dies, die casting dies, glass molds, stamping dies, and ...

7. Die (manufacturing) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Die_(manufacturing)

   A die is a specialized machine tool used in manufacturing industries to cut and/or form material to a desired shape or profile. Stamping dies are used with a press, [1] as opposed to drawing dies (used in the manufacture of wire) and casting dies (used in molding) which are not. Like molds, dies are generally customized to the item they are ...

8. Core (manufacturing) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Core_(manufacturing)

   First, a core is made from a fusible alloy or low melting temperature polymer. It is then placed inside the injection mold's dies and the plastic is shot into the mold. The molding is then removed from the mold with the core still in it. Finally, the core is melted or washed out of the molding in a hot bath.

9. Extrusion - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extrusion

   Movement of the extrusion with relation to the ram. If the die is held stationary and the ram moves towards it then it is called "direct extrusion". If the ram is held stationary and the die moves towards the ram it is called "indirect extrusion". The position of the press, either vertical or horizontal; The type of drive, either hydraulic or ...
