This excerpt discusses the Modes of Operation of the injection molding machine: manual mode (including set-up or mold set option), semi-automatic mode and automatic mode.

Our Injection Molding Basics series provides participants with a general understanding of the three major aspects of injection molding; the injection molding machine, the molding process, and the injection mold. These programs use 3D animation to demonstrate the inner workings of the machine and mold and to easily convey otherwise complex concepts. Important safety precautions are stressed throughout these training programs.
