When a metal, plastic or ceramic part needs to be embedded in plastic to improve product structure it is called Insert Molding.
Insert Molding can be a highly efficient alternative to the assembly of discrete parts using soldering, connectors, fasteners, or adhesives. It also expands plastic capabilities and can reduce final product cost by limiting the amount of costly metal needed to create a part.
Insert molding can also be combined with over molding using parts made of aluminum, brass, stainless steel, copper, plastic and more. With this, more esthetic outlooks and solutions can be achieved to better fit the design intent.
