Let's look at how you can identify a plastic injection company that is right for your project. Once you have an estimate of the press size you will need, you can identify plastic injection molding companies that will meet your requirements. In general, molders with a greater number and wider selection of press sizes will be able to accommodate the needs of your project. If you are not working with a completed mold, look for a plastic injection company who can design and build the mold. They will have a better understanding of how to maximize the manufacturing process and will often offer tooling allowances.
This, in turn, will minimize the overall cost of your project. In the end, your plastic injection producer will determine which machine would be best suited for your project. Larger presses can accommodate larger molds and multi-cavity molds often reducing the cost per part. However, larger molds are more expensive. Choosing the right press size can balance the upfront tooling expenditures with long-term manufacturing costs.
