The temperature of injection molds must be maintained in order for the production to take place. Because of the heat capacity, inexpensiveness, and availability of water, water is used as the primary cooling agent. To maintain temperature of an injection molded part, water can be channeled through the mold to account for quick cooling times. A consistent temperature mold is more efficient because this allows for faster cycle times. However, this is not always true because crystalline materials require the opposite of a warmer mold and lengthier cycle time.
