Injection molding is an efficient manufacturing process where liquid plastic resin is injected into a metal mold cavity, cools, and solidifies to form a precise plastic part. Known for its low material waste and low per-part cost, injection molding is ideal for large-scale production and widely used across industries like medical devices, consumer goods, and automotive.
At GHXLD, we specialize in creating molds from epoxy, aluminum, and steel, each offering unique benefits. Our team ensures that the most suitable mold type is selected to optimize results for each specific project.

Producing high-quality plastic parts relies on using a meticulously crafted mold. Plastic injection molds are built from precisely machined components, often made from premium metals like aircraft-grade aluminum or hardened steel. These molds are created by highly skilled professionals known as “mold makers,” who have invested years, if not decades, in perfecting their craft.
Mold makers require advanced, high-cost tools to do their work, including specialized software, CNC machines, tooling, and precision fixtures. The time needed to complete a plastic injection mold varies from a few days to several weeks, depending on the mold’s complexity and size.
First, plastic pellets are fed into a heated barrel where they are melted into a liquid. This molten plastic is then injected into a mold shaped like the desired part. The mold, made up of two tightly clamped halves, holds up to the pressure of the injection process.
Once the mold is filled, cooling begins. As the plastic cools, it solidifies into the shape of the mold. Proper cooling is essential to prevent issues like warping or shrinkage. After the plastic has fully hardened, the mold opens, and the finished part is ejected with the help of pins or other ejection methods.
This cycle repeats quickly and consistently, enabling manufacturers to produce large volumes of identical parts with minimal material waste. Injection molding is ideal for making complex parts and is used across industries, including automotive, electronics, and consumer goods.
In summary, injection molding is a cost-effective and efficient solution for creating precise plastic parts at scale, making it an essential process in modern manufacturing.
