Injection moulding is a manufacturing process for producing plastic parts from both thermoplastic and thermosetting plastic materials. The aim of this paper is to model, extract core–cavity and develop injection moulding tool for manufacturing an object. The part modelling, Core–Cavity design is done using PLM software Pro/ENGINEER 4.0. Mould base design is done according to HASCO standards. The plastic flow analysis is performed. NC code for fabricating the mould is generated using Vericut software. The unit cost to make a component is estimated including all the costs like material cost, tooling cost, machining cost etc.
