Plastic Injection Moulding Company
AV Injection is the UK’s premier plastic injection moulding company; all our injection moulders are experts.
We operate over 30 machines on a 7-day shift system; our constant shift pattern enables us to produce plastic moulds weighing up to 6.5kg. There are many advantages to having your plastic moulding produced in the UK, but not the least is that AV Injection is at the forefront of research and development. The use of digital quality control systems minimises discrepancies between moulds, ensuring high-quality production.
What is Plastic Injection Moulding?
Plastic injection moulding is still one of the UK’s most popular manufacturing processes, even after over 50 years of comprehensive use. Plastic pellets are melted and injected into a pre-made mould, and high-pressure air is then pumped into the mould to ensure that the plastic has completely covered the entire cavity. After the plastic has cooled, the mould is removed to leave a perfect replica of the desired specification.
