MOULDS FOR PLASTICS
Moulds for plastics (as well as rubber and other softer materials) are similar to dies in that they usually consist of an upper and lower portion. Plastic or other material is heated to a workable temperature and is compressed or injected into the mould cavity. The material quickly hardens as the halves of the mold are opened and the parts may be e...

MOULDS FOR METALS
A carburettor body is typical of the sort of complex metal part that can be effectively made by a die-casting die. Soft metal such as aluminium or zinc is melted and forced into the die cavity under pressure through channels in the die called "runners." The molten metal cools and hardens quickly and finished hardened parts are removed when the die ...
