Injection Molding Machine Diagram

A cross-sectional diagram illustrates the inner workings of an injection molding machine. It depicts plastic pellets being fed from a hopper into a heated barrel, where a rotating screw melts and conveys the material forward. The molten plastic is then injected through a nozzle into a mold cavity. The visual highlights key components such as the heater bands, which facilitate the melting process, and the clamping unit responsible for securing the mold during injection.
