What is Plastic Injection Molding: Overview & Benefits
Plastic injection molding is a manufacturing process where melted plastic resin is injected into a precision-engineered mold, then cooled and solidified to form the final part. This method is widely used for producing large volumes of identical plastic components with tight tolerances and high repeatability.
Moreover, this process offers high production speed, minimal material waste, and low cost per unit. It is also popular due to its ability to create complex or custom shapes using a wide range of materials.

Our Plastic Injection Molding Capabilities
Scientific Molding Techniques
At DAYIN, we leverage data-driven methodologies and advanced process controls to ensure consistent, high-quality results in all projects. Our scientific molding techniques include:
- Mold Flow Analysis: This stimulates material behavior inside the mold, helping identify optimal gate locations, wall thicknesses, potential defect zones, and more. As such, we can fine-tune manufacturing parameters early to minimize issues like warpage, sink marks, or deformation.
- Real-Time Parameter Monitoring: This ensures that critical injection variables—such as pressure, temperature, and fill rate—stay within tightly controlled tolerances. As a result, we provide stable, repeatable processes while minimizing costly rework or waste.
- Aluminum Mold Advancement: Our pioneering aluminum mold development further supports scientific molding by offering faster cooling times and shorter cycle durations. Plus, these molds are easy to machine and repair, accelerating turnaround and enhancing flexibility during product planning.
- Systemic Employee Training: With a comprehensive database from these cutting-edge processes, we develop standardized programs to ensure every technician understands and applies scientific molding principles, reducing reliance on individual experience and improving overall efficiency.
By integrating these practices, DAYIN delivers precision-molded parts that meet the strictest quality and performance requirements.
Size and Tolerances
At DAYIN, our plastic injection molding capabilities accommodate a wide range of part sizes. Here is a basic part size guideline for our smallest and largest machines:
Machine Clamping Force | 60T | 1,200T |
Max. Mold Length | 18 inches / 450 mm | 59 inches / 1500 mm |
Max. Mold Width | 10 inches / 250 mm | 47 inches / 1200 mm |
Max. Mold Thickness | 9 inches / 230 mm | 49 inches / 1250 mm |
DAYIN typically maintains a machining tolerance of +/- 0.003 inches (+/- 0.08 mm) for our molds, while the resin tolerance for the molded plastic parts is generally within +/- 0.002 inches per inch (+/- 0.002 mm per mm).
Nevertheless, these are general guidelines. Actual achievable part sizes and tolerances can vary depending on the specific part design, material used, and complexity of the plastic injection mold. Please consult with our team for detailed specifications for your project.
