Results for tag: "Two Shot Injection Molding"

Two-shot injection molding is a process used in the plastics industry to produce parts with two or more different materials or colors. It is a form of plastic molding that combines two separate injection molding processes into one. The first shot is used to create the base part, while the second shot is used to add a second material or color to the base part. This process is often used to create parts with a two-tone color scheme, or to add a layer of a different material to the base part for added strength or durability. Two-shot injection molding is a cost-effective way to produce parts with multiple materials or colors, and is often used in the automotive, medical, and consumer goods industries. It is also used to create parts with complex geometries, as the two-shot process allows for the use of multiple cavities and cores. Companies in the two-shot injection molding market include Husky Injection Molding Systems, Milacron, Sumitomo (SHI) Demag, and Engel. Show Less Read more
