Injection molding machines are capable of molding complex, precisely dimensional, or densely textured plastic products with metal inserts in a single process. They are widely used in national defense, machinery and electronics, automotive, transportation, building materials, packaging, agriculture, education and healthcare, and various aspects of daily life.
With the rapid development of the plastics industry, injection molding machines occupy a significant position in both quantity and variety. Their total production accounts for 20%-30% of all plastic molding equipment, making them one of the fastest-growing and most produced types of plastic machinery.
According to relevant statistics, from 1996 to 1998, my country exported 8,383 injection molding machines and imported 42,959. In 1998, my country's injection molding machine production reached 20,000 units, accounting for 42.9% of the total sales of plastic machinery.
There are many manufacturers of injection molding machines in China; according to incomplete statistics, there are over 2,000. Injection molding machines come in two structural forms: vertical and horizontal. Injection molding machines can be classified into ordinary type and precision type based on the products they produce.
