With e_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ moulding, hot melted plastic is pressed through a shaped hole to create a lengthy shaped plastic part

The plastic i _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ molding process is a manufacturing method for producing plastic parts. Before the process begins, an experienced mold maker creates the mold or tool used to make the part. The first step of injection moulding process is that p_ _ _ _ _ _, or small pieces, of plastic are fed from the hopper into a cylinder. After the plastic pallets are fed from the h_ _ _ _ _, a container shaped like a V into a cylinder, they are pushed along the cylinder by a rotating screw, and heated. The molten polymer is pushed by the ram through the n_ _ _ _ _ (a small hole) into the mould, and becomes hard. The soft plastic is injected through the nozzle into a shaped c_ _ _ _ _, an empty space, between the two halves of a mould. R_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ moulding is a high-temperature, low-pressure plastic forming process which uses heat and rotation along two axes to produce hollow, one-piece parts. After the soft, warm plastic is pushed toward a nozzle by the ram, it is then i_ _ _ _ _ _ _ through the nozzle into a shaped cavity between the two halves of a mould. Injection moulding uses a r_ _ , a machine part used to force molten plastic or rubber material into a mould cavity. After a product is designed, usually by an industrial designer or an engineer, m_ _ _ _ _ are made by a mould-maker (or toolmaker) from metal, usually either steel or aluminium, and precision-machined to form the features of the desired part. With e_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ moulding, hot melted plastic is pressed through a shaped hole to create a lengthy shaped plastic part.

After the soft, warm plastic is pushed toward a nozzle by the ram, it is then i_ _ _ _ _ _ _ through the nozzle into a shaped cavity between the two halves of a mould.

Read the passage about 3 types of plastic moulding and give short answer for the following questions with NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS AND/OR A NUMBER from the passage.Types Of Plastic MouldingBlow MouldingThis method is ideal for when the plastic part has to have uniform wall thickness. The machine heats up the raw plastic until it becomes liquid and then injects air into it like a balloon. The plastic is blown into a shaped mould and as it gets bigger it presses against the mould walls and it starts to take its shape. After the liquid balloon fills the mould it is cooled to keep its shape. The process is very fast and can produce up to 1.400 pieces in a 12-hour work day.Common Uses for Blow MouldingBlow Moulding is mostly responsible for producing products like plastic bottles, drums, cases and even fuel tanks. This is a fast and economical friendly option with the mould prices ranging somewhere in between injection moulding and rotational moulding.Injection MouldingInjection Moulding is fairly similar to extrusion moulding. The difference here is that with injection moulding the melted plastic is injected directly into a custom mould. The injection is under high pressure so that the mould is filled and a solid part is made. As with the other methods, after the mould is filled, the plastic is cooled as to keep its new shape and then the mould is opened.Common Uses for Injection MouldingThis is a common method to produce a high volume of plastic parts like car parts or even parts for surgical applications. Products can also be made with increased flexibility to suit the needs of designers or engineers.Rotational MouldingAlso sometimes called rotomoulding, this method involves the resin or liquid being placed inside the mould and then being rotated at high speeds. The liquid then evenly covers the entire surface of the mould to create a hollowed part with all the walls evenly thick. After the mould is cooled and the liquid plastic has taken its new form it is then taken out of the mould.This method is very material efficient and very little goes to waste making it more economical and environmentally friendly.Common Uses for Rotational MouldingThe most common use for this method is for big and hollow parts. These parts include car parts, bins, kayaks, road cones, pet houses and storage tanks.The tooling costs with rotational moulding are lower than other methods like injection and blow moulding. This makes for lower start-up costs and more effective production costs even at low volume production.How many parts are manufactured with the blow moulding process half a working day? Which type of moulding is considered in between injection and rotational moulding? With injection moulding, which part is made when the mould is filled under high pressure? Which kind of plastic parts are manufactured with high volume using injection moulding? How much waste does the rotational moulding process make? What is considered as one disadvantage of rotational moulding in the last paragraph?
