 Blow Moulding
Blow molding (or Moulding) is a
manufacturing process for forming hollow
plastic parts. It is also used for forming glass
bottles or other hollow shapes.

 Extrusion blow Moulding

 Injection blow Moulding
 Injection stretch Moulding

 Powder Metallurgy Moulding

Powder metallurgy is a metal-

shaping operation that uses
metallic powders to create
parts by pressing into a die and
fusing them by sintering.

 Compression molding
Compression molding is a method of
molding in which the molding material,
generally preheated, is first placed in an
open, heated mold cavity. The mold is closed
with a top force or plug member, pressure is
applied to force the material into contact
with all mold areas, while heat and pressure
are maintained until the molding material
has cured

 Extrusion Moulding
Extrusion moulding is defined as the
moulding process which is used for
manufacturing the moulding article with the
help of die or thermoplastic material.

 Injection Moulding

This is the most common, successful and

widely used moulding method to create
plastic products. In this method
thermoplastic material is powdered or
granular form is compressed in a pressure
chamber. In this the material is compressed
with the help of plunger or reciprocating
screw.

 Reaction Injection Moulding
This is the most common, successful and
widely used Moulding method to create
plastic products. In this method
thermoplastic material is powdered or
granular form is compressed in a pressure
chamber. In this the material is compressed
with the help of plunger or reciprocating
screw. Then compressed material forced
among the nozzle to a cold mold having
cavity of desired shape.

 Rotational Moulding
Rotational moulding, also named as
‘Rotomoulding’ is a process for
manufacturing hollow plastic products. It is a
high temperature and low pressure plastic
forming process. In this type powder is
inserted into the closed split mould and
rotated in twiaxial direction to create a
hollow part.

 Transfer Moulding
Transfer moulding is a designing process in which casting
material is compress into a mould. This process combines the
principle of compression and transfer of the polymer charge.
Then resin is transferred from the transfer pot to the mould.
In this there is no extra pressure is required. This type of
moulding is known as transfer moulding.

 Thermoforming Moulding
Thermoforming moulding is also known as
‘Vacuum Moulding’. Thermoforming
moulding process is a designing process in
which sheet is heated to a variable
temperature and forms a specific shape from
mould. In this vacuum pressure is used to
form the heated thermoplastic sheet into the
desired shape.
