Maker Hub’s ‘Tool Tip Friday’: Injection Molding Machine

The Maker Hub’s Injection Molding Machine by LNS Technologies is not as scary as it sounds. Located in The Vault, this machine is used to heat up plastic and inject it into a mold. This machine is primarily used to make prototype parts or a low-production of parts due to the machine’s size. Check out this video to see how it works, and visit the Maker Hub’s Wiki page for more information.

The Maker Hub exists as a resource and creative outlet for the entire George Fox community (yes, including non-engineers!). We are looking for student aces. A student ace is simply an expert on a piece of equipment who helps train other students on the usage of that equipment and gains extra privileges within the Maker Hub.

Please email makerhub@georgefox.edu if you would like to get connected or have any questions.
