Injection

With a range of 10 injection moulding machines of between 15T and 1,000T, peripheral equipment, and expertise on research projects with the implementation of new processes or technological demonstrators, the injection technical platform will help speed up your developments.

A technical injection platform for testing your tools or materials

IPC’s injection platform has a range of technical equipment to help you with your development of tools (mechanical trials, automatic operational testing, preproduction injection) and materials testing (injectability and characterisation). With over 300 tests carried out each year, our team of experts will be able to advise you.
