Study Notes

Injection Molding Process

The reciprocating screw plays a crucial role in the injection molding process by plastifying, mixing, and metering the polymer-fiber mixture.

Polymer-Fiber Mixture Composition

The polymer-fiber mixture used in injection molding is a composite material consisting of a polymer matrix reinforced with fibers.

Sprue Gate and Runners Function

The sprue gate and runners in the injection molding process serve as channels that direct the molten polymer-fiber mixture from the injection molding machine into the mold cavity.

Injection Molding Process Step

The process of forcing the molten polymer-fiber mixture into the mold under high pressure is called injection.

Feeding the Polymer-Fiber Mixture

The polymer-fiber mixture is fed into the injection molding machine through a hopper, where it is gravity-fed into the machine's barrel.
