INJEKTO 3 | Plastic Injection Molding Machine

Desktop Injection is the Future for Bootstrap Products and Businesses

I've followed Action Box for quite some time on their YouTube, and as a product owner who'd just spent tens of thousands on a steel injection mold themselves, seeing the Injekto in action made me full of regret for not having bought it sooner. If you have a product idea or concept now, you can literally 3D print it into an SLS or Poly mold, and voila, within the same day, you can go from idea to a physical 360 degree working concept. It's mindblowing how accessible this makes having a product come to life now, and I'd truly recommend it to all designers, dreamers and engineers. Not to mention the customer service is A+! My tips!: - Get the Mold Lifters (Life Changer) - Get 2 Aluminum Backers so you can rotate between pulls - Get a SILENT Compressor! I Purchased a Craftsman and it's dead quiet - Invest in a decent fume extractor, because depending on the material you use, it can get fumey. I got a very decent one from Vevor for $100

Very pleased with this machine!

I'm thrilled with my Action Box Injekto 3.0. The engineering was thoughtful, the kit was high quality, and it went together (with the guidance of some awesome printed and video instructions). I had one question during building, which was operator error, and support got back to me almost immediately. We use this in a teaching / research environment, and it's a great tool for that job. I also appreciated that this was a DIY solution that I could buy as a single line item - always nice in an environment where purchasing can be difficult.

Desktop Injection Molding - Oh my!

Mike on the Actionbox customer support team was super easy to work with and proved to be really helpful answering all my questions and helping me navigate my purchase. While receiving a kit of parts like this is always daunting, the assembly video was easy to navigate. The hardest part of the assembly was attaching the front and back covers and we ended up having to file down the burrs on the bottom plate in order to get it to fit - which honestly isn't much of a problem and was easily sorted. I'm pleased to say that the machine worked perfectly as soon as we turned it on. It does take several minutes to get up to temp but once it does it will very happily inject whatever it is you put into it. I still have a lot of work ahead of me sorting out molds, but the machine itself does exactly what it is supposed to do and I'm super happy with it.
