Types of Injection Molding Services Explained

Injection molding is a highly efficient manufacturing process for producing plastic components in large volumes. It’s widely used across industries such as automotive, electronics, medical, and home appliances. Based on service type and application, injection molding services can generally be classified as follows:

I. By Service Type

1. Custom Mold Injection Molding

Ideal for clients developing new products. This includes mold design, manufacturing, and full production support.

2. OEM / Contract Manufacturing

Customers provide existing molds, and we handle the mass production. Best for brand owners or trading companies seeking long-term manufacturing partners.

3. Rapid Prototyping

Low-volume and fast-turnaround service for early-stage projects, prototyping, or design validation. Flexible and cost-effective.

4. Overmolding / Two-Shot Molding

Combining different materials (e.g., soft over hard plastic) for improved functionality or aesthetics—commonly used in handles, grips, and automotive interiors.

5. Precision Injection Molding

Focused on parts with tight tolerances and strict dimensional requirements, such as medical devices or miniature gear components.

II. By Application

• Automotive: Dashboard trims, light housings, clips, and structural parts

• Consumer Electronics: Phone cases, earbud shells, charger housings

• Home Appliances: Control panels, vent grills, outer shells

• Medical Products: Syringe components, disposable casings, instrument enclosures
