Q: How do I know if injection molding is the right process for my product?
-More often than not, part complexity will dictate whether you need to use one process or the other. Parts that can be pressed into the desired shape can be accomplished through compression molding. Parts that are more complex, that have features that require a more sophisticated mold and will be more repetitive in its' production cycle are better injection molded.Q: How do I know if injection molding is the right process for my product?
