The plastic granules produced from scrap are fed into an injection molding machine.

Inside the machine, the granules are heated until they melt into a thick, liquid state.

The molten plastic is injected at high pressure into a steel mold that shapes it into the desired plastic product.

The mold is cooled (usually with water or air) so that the plastic solidifies into the correct shape.

Once cooled, the mold opens, and the newly formed plastic product is ejected.

The process is fast and efficient, allowing for high-volume production.

Different molds can be used to create various product designs and sizes.

After ejection, the products may have small excess plastic edges (called flash) that are trimmed.

Injection molding ensures that the recycled plastic product is consistent in shape, strength, and design.

This step transforms recycled granules into functional plastic products ready for quality inspection.
