Injection molding and compression molding are two of the most common methods of manufacturing plastic products. Injection molding is a process in which molten plastic is injected into a mold, where it cools and solidifies. Compression molding is a process in which a preheated plastic blank is placed in a mold and compressed, forcing the plastic to flow into the mold's cavities. Both processes can be used to produce a wide variety of plastic products, from simple parts to complex assemblies.
