Chances are, you've seen various videos on YouTube about how different everyday products are made. For a surprisingly large amount of different products, there's some kind of molding involved in the manufacturing process. Even loaves of bread are baked in bread pans to give them a shape.

In the modern world, plastic is all around us. From children's toys and kitchenware, to vehicles and medical equipment.
With the wide variety of uses plastic has, there are many things to consider during the process of designing parts. Not only will you have to choose the right polymer to ensure optimum part performance, you'll need to know about different injection molding techniques that will ultimately shape your polymer into a usable plastic part.
