Design flexibility = fast customization: With plastic offering greater design freedom than metal, the company can quickly develop and produce variations of the part for different customers.
Injection molding = cost savings: Compared with metal fabrication and its time-consuming secondary operations, injection-molded plastics are produced as a net-shape part in a single step, which boosts productivity and lowers system costs.
