Ejector pins are essential components in the injection molding process, which is widely used for manufacturing plastic parts. Ejector pins are used to eject or push the finished molded part out of the mold cavity once it has cooled and solidified. They ensure that the part can be removed from the mold without damage.
Ejector Pins: The primary elements that directly contact and push the part out of the mold.
