Car rearview mirrors can be classified into two categories: external and internal. The main material of a car rearview mirror is plastic. Manufacturing this type of mirror requires the creation of an injection mold. An injection mold, also known as an injection molding die, is one of the molds used to produce plastic products. The manufacturing process of injection molds requires the use of advanced CNC machining technology to ensure the precision and quality of the mold.

[0003] Injection molds are essential tools in the injection molding process. Their main function is to inject molten plastic into the mold for cooling and shaping. Injection molds can be designed and manufactured to meet the requirements of the product's shape, size, and material, ensuring the production of qualified products.
