	Injection Molding
		Injection molding produces the most consistent results by automating all aspects of how the rubber gets into the mold.
		In injection molding, the rubber is worked and warmed and then squirted into the mold at controlled speeds, pressures and temperatures.
		This forces the rubber into the mold, similar to the action of a hypodermic syringe.

	Penn Plastics: FAQ on Plastic Injection Molding
		Injection molding becomes insert molding when a specifically designed insert (typically of metal) is nested in the mold before the molten plastic is injected.
		In injection molding, a mold is a specially designed metal tool consisting usually of a "mold base" and one or more "cavities." The cavities are contoured to the exact specifications of the desired product, and it is into these cavities that the molten plastic is forced and hardens.
		Considerations for the design of a mold base include 1) the proper transmission of molten plastic along a system of channels (called "runners,") 2) the precise cooling and/or secondary heating necessary for a given part, and 3) the separating and ejecting of the part from the mold (and any runner) after it is complete.

	Metal-Ceramic Injection Molding
		Similar to plastic injection molding, a molten polymer (called binder) plus ceramic or metal powder paste is injected into a mold.
		Metal injection molding is a technology that combines metal powder technology with capabilities of plastic injection molding.
		After molding, the MIM part is debound and sintered at temperatures from 600 degrees F to 2,200 F or higher to fuse the fine powdered particles into a solid shape that retains all of the mold's features.
