Reaction injection molding

Reaction injection molding (RIM) is a manufacturing process where liquid chemical components are mixed and then injected into a mold to create complex plastic parts. Inside the mold, the chemicals react and cure rapidly, forming a solid, durable object. This process allows for precise shaping and smooth finishes, making it ideal for producing lightweight, high-performance parts such as automotive components and housing panels. RIM is efficient for large, intricate parts and offers good control over material properties, combining chemical reactions with molding techniques to produce strong, detailed products efficiently.
