The Model 150A PIM-SHOOTER™by LNS Technologies is a bench model injection molder designed for production of thermoplastic parts in quantities required for making prototypes and low-volume production (or higher-volume production of small parts). Due to the machine’s small size it is limited to producing small parts, but it is capable of producing these parts efficiently, accurately (as accurate as the mold is), and repeatedly.
Here is an example of this piece of equipment being used.

The injection molder works by melting plastic pellets within a heated barrel to a specific temperature, and using a ram plunger to force the molten plastic through a nozzle, into a mold cavity.
