The cost of plastic injection can vary widely depending on several factors. These include the size and complexity of the part, the type of plastic used, and the quantity of parts produced. Typically, larger and more complex parts may require more expensive molds and longer cycle times, which can increase the cost of plastic injection. The type of plastic used also affects the injection cost, as some materials may be more expensive than others. Additionally, the quantity of parts produced can impact the cost of plastic injection, with larger production runs generally reducing the unit cost.
The mold represents a significant initial expense, which can range from several thousand to tens of thousands of dollars. However, once made, parts generally vary from a few cents to a few dollars each, although this can vary depending on the size and complexity of the part.
