FAQs about Plastic Injection Molding Temperature Control

Why control the temperature? Many of the plastic injection molding and plastic blowmolding applications require even and precise control of temperature in order to successfully fabricate small compact–or intricate–components and finished products.    In many cases, “hot spots” or areas of localized heating from electric heating elements will not provide enough precision or even-temperature, in order […]
